Akshay Kumar's Jolly LLB 2 Lands In Legal Trouble! Advocate Wants LLB Removed From The Title
Advocate Ajaykumar S Waghmare files a petition to the Bombay High Court demanding the word 'LLB' to be removed from Akshay Kumar's upcoming film 'Jolly LLB 2'.
An advocate in Mumbai named Ajaykumar S Waghmare, has filed a petition to the Bombay High Court demanding that Akshay Kumar's upcoming film 'Jolly LLB 2' must drop the word 'LLB' from its title as he believes it sends a wrong message to the people about lawyers and their work ethics.
As
per
a
report
in
The
Hindu,
the
advocate
was
quoted
as
saying
that
it's
a
"deliberate
attempt
to
malign
the
reputation
of
the
Indian
legal
profession."
Not
only
does
Mr.
Waghmare
take
offence
of
the
film's
title,
he
has
also
opposed
to
Akshay
Kumar
(dressed
in
lawyer's
suit)
dancing
around
the
court
premises
and
playing
the
game
of
cards,
which
is
unacceptable
to
him.
Mr. Waghmare, in the petition has also requested the Bombay High Court to ban the trailer being played on television as it sets a bad name to the profession. The court will most likely take up the case and give its judgement tomorrow, January 24, 2017.
The surprising part is that, Arshad Warsi's 'Jolly LLB' had the word 'LLB' right in its title and nobody had a problem. The film also went on to receive a National Award and gained more traction in return. We wonder why all this fuss about the movie's title all of a sudden? What do you guys think?
