Decoding Jolly LLB 2: Here’s why the Akshay Kumar film is a clean hit!
Jolly LLB 2 is about to end its lifetime run at the Box-Office. The 13 days collection of this Akshay Kumar film stands at Rs 102.44 and the movie is expected to take a halt at collections close to Rs 112 crore.
The film is the fourth consecutive hit for Akshay Kumar as his previous three ventures i.e. Airlift, Housefull 3 and Rustom also raked in above Rs 100 crore at the ticket window. The film was produced and distributed by Fox Star Studios which has enabled them to earn a reasonable return on investment.
A major chunk of theatrical return has come from the multiplexes which resulted in a comparatively lower distributors share.
