Aadu 3 Advance Booking Day 1: Jayasurya Film Poised To Be His Highest Opener, Beating Aadu 2

Aadu 3 Kerala Pre Sales: Advance bookings for Aadu 3: One Last Ride - Part 1 have opened on March 14, and early numbers indicate a strong start for the upcoming Malayalam film, which is scheduled to hit theatres worldwide on March 19. The third instalment in the Aadu franchise, directed by Midhun Manuel Thomas, appears to be generating steady interest in Kerala in the days leading up to its release.

According to data shared by box office tracker What The Fuss, the film has registered over ₹1.78 crore in advance sales from around 1,230 tracked shows in Kerala. The same reports also suggest that ticket sales have crossed the one lakh mark during the initial booking window, pointing to a solid pre-release trend for the Jayasurya-starrer.

Industry tracker AB George noted that the film's Day 1 pre-sales have already surpassed the opening figures of Aadu 2, which had collected approximately ₹1.65 crore on its first day in Kerala. With this, Aadu 3 is currently positioned to become the highest opener in Jayasurya's career in the state, based on available advance booking data.

Aadu 3 Cast, Premise And Crew Details

The Aadu series, which began with Aadu: Oru Bheegara Jeevi Aanu in 2015, gained a strong following over time, particularly after the second part found wider acceptance among audiences. The third film continues with familiar characters while introducing new additions to the ensemble cast.

Alongside Jayasurya, the film features Vinayakan, Saiju Kurup, Vijay Babu, Sunny Wayne, Dharmajan Bolgatty, Bhagath Manuel, Harikrishnan, Indrans, and Bijukuttan, among others, many of whom reprise their roles from the earlier instalments. New cast members include Alleya Bourne and Krishna Jeev.

The film is described as a fantasy comedy that expands the narrative beyond its earlier setting, incorporating elements such as reincarnation and multiple timelines. The storyline is expected to retain the franchise's signature humour while exploring a more elaborate premise.

Aadu 3 is jointly produced by Vijay Babu under Friday Film House and Venu Kunnappilly under Kavya Film Company. The technical team includes cinematographer Akhil George, composer Shaan Rahman, and editor Lijo Paul, with Dawn Vincent handling the background score.

With two days remaining for release as of March 17, the film's advance booking performance will continue to be closely tracked to assess whether the early momentum sustains through opening day.
