The trailer kicks off with an intriguing question: “When there is one law, one court, and one judge… then why are there two Jollys?” And with this question, two Jollys appear on our screen, face-to-face: the original Jolly from the streets of Meerut, Jagdish Tyagi (Arshad Warsi), and the powerhouse Jolly who proved his mettle in Lucknow, Jagdishwar Mishra (Akshay Kumar).
This trailer instantly takes you on a nostalgic trip through the ‘Jolly LLB’ franchise.
- A Nod to Jolly LLB 1: Seeing Arshad Warsi back in his bold and rustic avatar will remind you of the first film from 2013. His struggle, his street-smart tactics, and his spirit to stand up against the system, which made us fall in love with Jolly in the first place, are all on full display. A scene where Arshad declares, “I’m the one who started this practice; he just showed up later,” is guaranteed to draw applause from the audience.
- A Reference to Jolly LLB 2: On the other hand, Akshay Kumar is in top form as the Jolly from Lucknow. Just like in ‘Jolly LLB 2’, his character seems to be a perfect blend of emotion and comedy. The trailer shows his witty exchanges with his family, especially his wife Pushpa Pandey (Huma Qureshi), which is reminiscent of the second installment and adds a fun, domestic angle to the story.
The Grand Return of the Entire Cast
The biggest highlight of this trailer is bringing together its stellar cast:
- Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi: Seeing these two pitted against each other as lawyers is a dream come true. Their banter, their arguments, and their rivalry to prove who is better will be the soul of this film.
- Saurabh Shukla: Trapped in the middle of all this chaos, the perpetually annoyed and exasperated Judge Sunderlal Tripathi, played by Saurabh Shukla, is set to win our hearts once again. His dialogue in the trailer, “I have witnessed the showdown in Delhi and the trial in Lucknow, but this is the first time I’m seeing this level of madness!” perfectly captures the essence of the entire story.
- Huma Qureshi and Amrita Rao: The wives of both Jollys, Pushpa Pandey (Huma) and Sandhya Tyagi (Amrita Rao), also make a fun comeback. There’s a brief scene where both are seen defending their respective husbands, hinting at another ‘Jolly vs. Jolly’ battle brewing outside the courtroom.
- The Surprise Package: The trailer also gives us glimpses of veteran actors like Annu Kapoor and Gajraj Rao, who seem to be introducing new twists to the case.
Final Verdict
Overall, the trailer for ‘Jolly LLB 3’ promises a complete entertainment package. It not only honours the legacy of the first two films but also takes the story to a new and much grander scale. With a mix of comedy, drama, suspense, and a powerful social message, this trailer makes it clear that when two Jollys collide, the courtroom will witness not just delays, but a storm of entertainment that no one would want to miss. Now, we just have to wait for the movie to find out: who is the real Jolly?
