TIL Desk Bollywood/ Subhash Kapoor’s 2013 satire Jolly LLB was the surprise hit of that year. Featuring Arshad Warsi and Boman Irani as lawyers fighting a hit and run case, the story gave a clever, witty take on the judicial system of the country. The film’s sequel Jolly LLB 2 releases today and Akshay Kumar takes up the role of a struggling lawyer who finds a case that changes his life forever.
Pitted against Akshay Kumar is Annu Kapoor as the successful lawyer. Huma Qureshi plays Akshay Kumar’s wife in the film and Saurabh Shukla reprises his role as the judge.
There has been much speculation as to why Akshay replaced Arshad in the sequel. What would be interesting to see is whether the superstar manages to bring in the authenticity that Arshad had brought to the film’s first part. Will Jolly LLB 2 as sharp and realistic as the first part?
