Anticipation is high among fans for the much-awaited film "Jolly LLB 3," starring Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi. Filming is currently underway, and a significant legal update has emerged.
Jolly LLB 3: Fans eagerly await the third installment of the popular Bollywood courtroom comedy series, "Jolly LLB 3," featuring Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi in lead roles. While filming was progressing in Rajasthan, a petition was filed in the Rajasthan High Court due to some controversies, seeking to halt the film's shooting and release. However, the Rajasthan High Court has now dismissed the petition, providing significant relief to Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi, and director Subhash Kapoor.
What was the petition about?
Chandrabhan Rathore, President of the Rajasthan Bar Association, filed the petition in the Ajmer District Court. The petition alleged that "Jolly LLB 3" misrepresents the judiciary and lawyers. It argued that the film would constitute contempt of court and create a distorted perception of the judiciary among the general public. The petition also demanded a halt to the film's shooting and release to maintain the dignity of the judiciary.
Rajasthan High Court's significant decision
After hearing the petition, the Rajasthan High Court clarified that the film has not yet been released, nor have any of its scenes been publicly screened. Therefore, halting the shooting or release based solely on apprehensions and assumptions would not be appropriate. The court also stated that if, after the film's release, any content emerges that is deemed offensive to the judiciary or lawyers, a complaint can be filed with the censor board or appropriate legal action can be sought in court.
Upholding the Ajmer District Court's decision, the High Court dismissed the petition, bringing relief to Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi, and the entire film crew.
Numerous shooting locations in Rajasthan
"Jolly LLB 3" has been filmed in various parts of Rajasthan. Key scenes were shot in Ajmer and several other locations. Rajasthan's cultural and historical sites have provided the film with a unique look and atmosphere. The local administration and police provided support throughout the filming process to ensure smooth operations.
The first two installments of "Jolly LLB" performed exceptionally well at the box office, successfully making the intricacies of court proceedings understandable and humorous for audiences. These films presented legal complexities in a simple and entertaining manner, which resonated deeply with viewers.
Expectations are high for the third installment, with Akshay Kumar's entry and unique style receiving significant praise. Arshad Warsi is also set to deliver a powerful performance, as in previous installments. The film is directed by Subhash Kapoor, who, keeping the success of the previous parts in mind, has attempted to incorporate new twists and comedic elements into the story.
Popularity of courtroom comedies in Bollywood
The "Jolly LLB" series has given a unique dimension to courtroom dramas. While courtroom films are generally serious and dramatic, these films highlight aspects of the judicial system through humor and satire. This makes them appealing to a wide range of audiences. The Rajasthan High Court's decision exemplifies the importance of respecting both the dignity of the judicial system and freedom of expression.
Following the Rajasthan High Court's ruling, filming of "Jolly LLB 3" will continue at full speed, and the film is expected to be released in theaters later this year.
