Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi have landed in legal trouble due to their upcoming movie ‘Jolly LLB 3’ after a Pune court issued notices to them. This happened after a lawyer, Wajid Khan Bidkar, filed a complaint against them, claiming that ‘Jolly LLB 3’ has made fun of the legal system and court proceedings. This is the second time the movie has landed in legal trouble, as a complaint was also filed in May 2024.
The court has asked both actors to appear before it on September 28, 2025. According to News18, Bidkar argued that the movie is presenting the legal system and court proceedings in a derogatory manner and insults the judiciary. He also objected to the word ‘mamu’ being used to address judges.
About Jolly LLB 3:
The first part of ‘Jolly LLB 3’ starred Arshad Warsi, Boman Irani, Amrita Rao, and Saurabh Shukla in the lead roles. The plot focused on Advocate Jagdish Tyagi aka Jolly, who takes up the hit-and-run case of six innocent labourers by going against the rich and judicial corruption.
‘Jolly LLB 2’, released in 2017, introduced Akshay Kumar as Jagdishwar Mishra, aka the new Jolly. Huma Qureshi, Annu Kapoor, and Kumud Mishra joined the star cast, whereas Saurabh Shukla reprised the role of the judge. The movie focused on a lawyer who wants to bring justice to the deceased victim of a fake encounter involving a corrupt police officer and a terrorist presumed dead by fighting a case against a ruthless and powerful advocate.
‘Jolly LLB 3’ will release in theatres on September 19, 2025. Apart from Akshay and Arshad, the movie will star Saurabh Shukla, Huma Qureshi and Amrita Rao. They will reprise their roles from the previous instalment.
