Aadu 3, directed by Midhun Manuel Thomas and headlined by Jayasurya, continued its strong box office run on its first Monday. The fantasy comedy added ₹3.50 crore on Day 5, marking a 40% dip compared to its opening day performance.
The film’s total collection in Kerala now stands at approximately ₹31 crore within just five days of release. Going by current trends, the movie is expected to wrap up its extended opening weekend close to the ₹40 crore mark. Positive word-of-mouth has played a key role in sustaining steady footfall in theatres.
The film has already become Jayasurya’s highest-grossing release in Kerala, surpassing the success of its predecessor. With its current pace, the Malayalam entertainer has secured a “Clean Hit” status at the box office. Trade expectations suggest the film will continue to perform well in the coming weeks and finish its theatrical run on a strong note.
Day-wise Kerala box office collection:
Day 1: ₹5.90 crore
Day 2: ₹7.00 crore
Day 3: ₹7.35 crore
Day 4: ₹7.25 crore
Day 5: ₹3.50 crore
Total: ₹31.00 crore
Apart from its domestic success, the film is also doing exceptionally well in overseas markets. The worldwide gross of Aadu 3 is now nearing the ₹100 crore milestone.
