When the invisible claws of the censorship start strangling creativity, the filmmakers either mold or distort it. Subhash Kapoor, who specializes in making the bitterness of satire sweet, is returning to the farmer movement against land acquisition in Bhatta Parsaul, Greater Noida this week, which changed the direction of development politics to further his film Jolly LLB. Viewers of ‘Jolly LLB’ (2013) and ‘Jolly LLB 2 (2017)’, who enjoyed a courtroom drama rich in social messages and light-hearted humor, are surprised that both Jolly’s return in ‘Jolly LLB 3’ is also focused on social messages, but this time the match is not limited to a unaccounted case, but not only a single-handedness, there is a wealth, wealth and wealth in the third part, but in the third part, there is a wealth and wealth in the third part. Poverty also has a deep connection.
Story
The story of ‘Jolly LLB 3’ takes us to a village in Bikaner district of Rajasthan, where a rich businessman, Haribhai Khaitan (Gajraj Rao), wants to start his dream project, ‘Bikaner to Boston’. This project is so big that it needs land from the farmers of the village. However, when the farmers are not ready to give their land, Haribhai Khaitan misleads the farmers with the help of local politicians, administrative officials and influential people and illegally takes the land in his name.
The situation worsens when a farmer commits suicide under pressure and his wife Janaki (Seema Bis) goes to Jolly (Arshad Warsi) and then to Jolly (Akshay Kumar) in the hope of justice, but both of them in the beginning they hesitate to help him. However, when they find out the truth behind the incident, they unitedly decide to fight a case against this injustice.
Film tone and plot structure
The first part of the ‘Jolly LLB 3’ is light, with humor, jokes and outspoons of the court. The second part becomes more emotional and serious, which changes the tone of the film; It emphasizes the plight of farmers and social justice. In the first part, the tip between Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi is very entertaining. These debate and comic timing between the two keep the audience tied. Saurabh Shukla, who is making a comeback as Judge Tripathi, once again makes his presence felt, with his Panchlines and as usual, his dialogue payment is worth seeing.
However, the courtroom drama in the first part seems a bit weak. Most of the story rotates outside the courtroom, which may look slightly slow. Conversely, the second part is completely serious like the previous two parts. The suffering of farmers and the flaws of the system touch the heart. However, the courtroom drama Jolly is not as impressive as the first two installments of the LLB series.
Artist: Who is better in Jolly LLB 3?
If you are wondering, who is more influential of both the films of Jolly LLB, then Akshay Kumar is the answer. He has more scenes and his screen presence overshadows Arshad. However, the character of ‘Jolly LLB’ actor is more serious and sensitive, which makes his acting look a bit strange.
Both actresses, Amrita Rao and Huma Qureshi, have got less time on the screen and could be introduced better, especially due to the film’s story being focused on society and relationships.
The biggest strength of the film is its acting. Akshay Kumar once again proves his ease in courtroom drama and social films. Their dialogue payments, emotions and comic timings are excellent. Arshad Warsi, from whom viewers expect humor, this time plays a serious lawyer who does justice, but the tone of the film shows them many times.
Saurabh Shukla, as usual, is the best in the role of a judge. His humor, his spontaneity in the courtroom and his dialogue makes the film special. Seema Biswas, despite having very little dialogue, performs brilliantly. Their expressions reflect sadness and helplessness. Gajraj Rao, who is usually seen in positive or comic roles, is in the role of a villain this time. Although he has done a good job, there is no villain effect in his personality.
Ram Kapoor is very impressive as Gajraj Rao’s lawyer. His arguments against Akshay in court are worth seeing.
Jolly LLB3’s social concern
‘Jolly LLB 3’ is not just a courtroom drama, but it highlights the failures of the system and the difficulties faced in getting justice for the common man. In the film, issues like farmer suicides and land acquisition are shown sensitivity. ‘Jolly LLB 3’ tries to show that the legal battle is not only limited to paperwork and debate, but also includes layers of emotions, conflicts and humanity.
It may not be the best courtroom drama, but it proves why this franchise still matters. ‘Jolly LLB 3’ makes you laugh at the same time, forces and makes you happy.
