The film witnessed a jump on Tuesday where it collected Rs 6.5 crore, taking the overall collection of the film to Rs 65.5 crore .The jump was also because on Tuesday most cinema chains offer a discount to pull in more crowds. Now if one looks at the history, Jolly LLB 2’s collection also witnessed a drop on its Monday where it collected Rs 7.26 crore from a Sunday collection of Rs 19.95 crore. But on Tuesday the film’s collection jumped by almost 25 % to mint Rs 9.07 crore and thereby taking the 5 day collection of the film to Rs 66.79 crore.
