Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi, and Saurabh Shukla's Jolly LLB 3 hit the theatres on Friday with decent numbers and positive reviews. The highly anticipated sequel performed well on its first Saturday and earned nearly Rs 33 Crore net in India.
According to a trade website, Jolly LLB 3 collected Rs 20 crore net in India on September 20, taking the total to Rs 32.75 crore net in India. The film registered a surge on the second day.
The court drama witnessed an overall 23.02% Hindi Occupancy on Saturday, with an occupancy of 13.65% in the morning, 32.38% in the afternoon, 40.47% in the evening and 55.10% in the night shows.

Interestingly, the evening shows registered 0% occupancy in the theatres. With only 10% occupancy in the morning shows, the movie has had a rather slow start to its first day at the box office.
However, the film’s collection has surpassed Jolly LLB 2 earnings, which minted Rs 17.31 crore net in India. However, the film is expected to cross the Rs 50 crore mark by its third day of release in India if the film continues its momentum.

Jolly LLB 3 Review
An excerpt of Jolly LLB 3 review from Moneycontrol reads, “While the film entertains, there are missed chances to add more punch. The restaurant sequence with Saurabh Shukla, Akshay, Arshad, Huma, and Amrita doesn’t land any laughs. Similarly, the meeting between the two Jollys over alcohol bottles could have been developed. Yet, the final 30 minutes in the courtroom redeem these lapses. The exchanges are sharp, the tension is real, and the arguments force the audience to reflect on issues that go beyond the screen. ‘Jolly LLB 3’ may not explore its subject with the depth it deserves, but it still leaves a mark with its blend of humour, drama, and moral conflict. Flaws aside, it remains a courtroom drama worth watching—carried by strong performances, a relevant message, and moments that stay with you.”
