Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi’s 'Jolly LLB 3' nets Rs 1.5 crore in Day 1 advance booking

The much anticipated third part of Jolly LLB series starring Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi and Saurabh Shukla had taken a confident start at the ticket window. The film which is slated to release on 19th September has begun advance booking for limited shows as of now and it has already crossed Rs 1.5 crore collection at the box office. Directed by Subhash Kapoor, the film carries forward the quirky yet socially relevant tone of the previous two parts which were headlined by Arshad and Akshay respectively. When Akshay was made part of the second installment, it was widely reported that he had replaced Arshard in the film, but the makers kept on denying it stating that both the characters are different. So years later when for the third part both of them were brought together the word of the makers came true. The film features seasoned actors such as Gajraj Rao, Huma Qureshi, Amrita Rao, and Seema Biswas, each expected to bring depth and humor to the narrative.Going by the details shared by Sacnilk, the film has till now collected Rs 28.46 lakh by selling over 7000 tickets. And when it includes the black bookings the collection of the film jumps to Rs 1.5 crore. Till now the booking has opened for only 2800 shows and as the release date comes closer, the number of tickets sold and number shows are expected to show an exponential jump. Akshay who has struggled with his box office collection since the star of pandemic has returned to his winning way with the success of films like Kesari - Chapter 2 and Housefull 5 both films made a valuable contribution to the box office. He will be next seen in Priyadarshan’s Bhoot Bangla which is slated to release next year. He also recently completed the first schedule of Haiwaan again with Priyadarshan where he teamed up with Saif Ali Khan for the first time since Tashan. There are also rumours that the anticipated and much controversy stricken Hera Pheri 3 is also going to go on floor soon which will see Akshay coming back with Suniel Shetty and Paresh Rawal again.
