Punjabi superstar Diljit Dosanjh’s romantic comedy Jatt & Juliet 3 opened with solid collections on Day 1, i.e. 1st Thursday. Despite facing stiff competition from the highly anticipated pan-India sci-fi flick, Kalki 2898 AD starring Prabhas, Jatt & Juliet 3 put up a strong showing. Read on!
As per Sacnilk, the movie amassed 3.35 crore on Day 1 in India. The makers have pulled out all the stops, securing the widest release ever for a Punjabi title in India with over 2,000 shows across 430 cinemas. This ambitious strategy capitalizes on the film’s star power and the popularity of the Jatt & Juliet franchise.
Overseas, Jatt & Juliet 3 is also enjoying a record-breaking release in 35+ countries and 550+ locations. The movie collected 6.63 crore from the international arena, taking Jatt & Juliet 3’s worldwide total to 10.61 crore gross.
2024 has been a slow year for Punjabi cinema, with only a handful of films finding success. Jatt & Juliet 3 is expected to be a major turning point, potentially ending the first half of the year on a high note.
The film already boasts the highest-ever opening day pre-sales for a Punjabi title, exceeding 1.50 crore gross. While this strong advance booking could have secured the biggest Punjabi opening ever, the juggernaut Kalki 2898 AD poses a significant challenge.

With 3.35 crore Jatt & Juliet 3 took the second-biggest Punjabi opener of all time. While it fell short of Carry On Jatta 3’s record-breaking 4.55 crore net opening, it surpassed Diljit Dosanjh‘s own film Honsla Rakh’s opening of 2.52 crore net.
