Akshay Kumar Jolly LLB 3: Day 8 Box Office Collection Early Estimates – Slow Start to Second Weekend, But Saturday Could See Big Jump
After a fair first week at the box office, Jolly LLB 3 has entered its second weekend on a slow note. Early estimates suggest that the film collected around 3.8 to 4 crore net on Friday (Day 8), roughly in the same range as Thursday (4 crore). With this, the film’s total collection stands at around 77 crore approx.
Despite a steady hold on weekdays, the second Friday opening has been on the weaker side. However, advance bookings for Saturday are showing very strong traction, with pre-sales indicating that the film could see a jump of 70–80% or even higher. This could help the film stage a strong comeback over the weekend.
How Friday (Day 8) Performed
Morning and afternoon shows on Friday started very low, similar to weekday trends, with occupancies in the range of 4–5%. However, evening and night shows saw a slight pick-up in metro multiplexes. Mass belts are still muted, partly due to Navratri festivities, but better turnout is expected on Saturday.
Overall Day 8 occupancy has been around 9–10%, keeping the film just stable compared to Thursday.

Audience Response & Trend
While the film has delivered steady collections on weekdays, the audience response remains mixed. The Akshay Kumar–Arshad Warsi chemistry and courtroom drama elements are being appreciated, but word of mouth has not translated into big repeat footfalls.
That said, advance bookings for Saturday are encouraging and point towards a sharp growth of 70–80%. If this jump sustains through Sunday, Jolly LLB 3 could still be in a good position to cross the ₹90 crore mark by the end of its second weekend.
Box Office Status
The film is steadily moving towards the ₹100 crore milestone at the domestic box office. The second weekend will be crucial in deciding how much higher it can go and whether it can challenge the lifetime total of Jolly LLB 2.
All eyes are now on Saturday and Sunday, which are expected to bring in the much-needed boost.
