Recently, Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi ignited excitement among fans by kicking off the filming for ‘Jolly LLB 3’. They shared a playful video on social media. However, the film has encountered a bump in the road as it faces legal trouble over allegations of damaging the integrity of the judiciary. According to reports, a complaint has been lodged against ‘Jolly LLB 3’ for allegedly portraying the judiciary in a derogatory manner.

Chandrabhan, the District Bar Association President, reportedly filed the complaint against the movie’s actors, director, and producer, citing concerns over the mockery of the judicial system in the previous instalments.

The Bar President expressed dismay over the portrayal of legal professionals and judges, stating that it deviates from real-world scenarios and tarnishes the judiciary’s standing. He emphasised the need for filmmakers to consider these issues during production to uphold the dignity of the judiciary.

Chandrabhan Singh Rath remarked, “This decision has been taken after watching the first and second parts of Jolly LLB. It seems that the filmmakers, directors, and actors do not respect the dignity and honour of the judiciary of the country at all.”

He continued, “The shooting of Jolly LLB 3 is underway in villages and areas around Ajmer, including the district magistrate’s office, which will continue for several days. Even during the shooting of this film, the image, respect, and dignity of the judiciary, including judges, do not seem to be taken seriously at all.”

Meanwhile, despite the legal controversy, Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi continued to share updates from the film’s set, maintaining a light-hearted approach. Akshay’s social media post teased the audience about the storyline. He captioned it, “Ab original kaun aur duplicate kaun, yeh toh pata nahi. But this sure is going to be a jolly good ride !! Stay with us. Jai Mahakaal.”
