With the absence of major competitors like Dhurandhar 2 in the Gulf region, Aadu 3 has been able to capitalise at the box office overseas. It will soon touch ₹100 crore mark globally, becoming the first Mollywood release this year to hit the milestone.

What is the story for Aadu 3?

The first Aadu film (2015) underperformed at the box office but found a second life through television reruns, eventually attaining cult status. Aadu 2 arrived in 2017 and was a box office success. Six years on, Aadu 3 brings back the funny elements of the franchise and adds a time travel twist to it. Jayasurya, Sunny Wayne, Vijay Babu and Vinayakan play lead roles in this laugh-out-loud comedy entertainer. All franchise movies, including the latest Aadu 3, have been directed by Midhun Manuel Thomas.
