Lively Review of Jolly LLB 3: A Clever Courtroom Saga Continues from a Series Persistently Questioning Its Own Storyline
In the world of courtroom dramas, Jolly LLB 3 brings a fresh breath of comedy and empathy, set to release on 19 September 2025. Directed by Subhash Kapoor, this third installment of the Jolly franchise stars Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi in lead roles, with an ensemble cast that includes Huma Qureshi, Shilpa Shukla, Amrita Rao, Ram Kapoor, Saurabh Shukla, Seema Biswas, and Gajraj Rao.
The narrative centers around two Jolly characters - Jagdish Tyagi a.k.a. Jolly (Arshad Warsi) and Jagdishwar Mishra a.k.a. Jolly (Akshay Kumar). The film explores the question of what it means to be self-righteous, particularly in the context of refusing to part with land or houses during redevelopment. Akshay Kumar delivers a less stereotypical role, questioning the judicial system, corporates, and the dignity of farmers.
Janki, played by Seema Biswas, is a widow whose husband took his own life due to debt, leading to a case involving land politics, farmer suicides, and the impact of industry expansion on farming communities. Saurabh Shukla's character, Sunderlal Tripathi, serves as a moral compass and the pulse of the film's world.
The humor and empathy coexist in Jolly LLB 3, raising questions about the nature of redemption in the courtroom setting. The writing presents Haribhai Khaitan, played by Gajraj Rao, as a 'well-intended in theory, but not action' villain. Ram Kapoor's character, Vikram, leaves a memorable impression in the film.
However, the film's messaging is clear, but the delivery is uneven. The buildup strains without reward, and the finale slips into sermon. The second half tends to sermonize, with a courtroom tussle that keeps the audience engaged. The film is aimed at courtroom-drama enthusiasts and fans eager for the reunion of Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi.
Despite its flaws, Jolly LLB 3 offers a thought-provoking exploration of progress and sacrifice, particularly India's transition from agriculture to corporate. It raises questions about the cost of development and the dignity of those it impacts. With its laughter, sharp punchlines, and poignant questions, Jolly LLB 3 promises to be an engaging watch for audiences seeking a blend of comedy and courtroom drama.
