The Pappan wave is still far from slowing down as 'Aadu 3' gives a powerhouse performance in its second day of release at the box office. After a huge opening, the Jayasurya-starring flick has finally managed to breach the ₹6 crore mark in India in its second run, still going strong in its home territory of Kerala. Despite the experimental fantasy-time travel that director Midhun Manuel Thomas has incorporated into the flick, the brand of slapstick comedy that it offers, along with the iconic chemistry of its cast, is still resonating well with family viewers. As more people get to know of the riotous second half of the flick, it is being predicted that it might give a huge jump in the coming weekends.
