Jolly LLB2, No Arshad, Lots Of Akshay & Sassy Dialogues

Published

The trailer of  Jolly LLB2  whittles down legalese to a satirical formula: a flippant near-jobless irresponsible lawyer-hero whose conscience undergoes a massive awakening during the course of the  film. This is the formula used in the first film. It returns to haunt the second film.

This time ‘Jolly LLB’ is played by Akshay Kumar instead of Arshad Warsi. Except that he is no longer named Jolly, but Jagdishwar Mishra with a wife Pushpa Pandey who seems to be in the habit of passing out drunk while her husband harangues her about life .

Huma Qureshi who plays the wife looks convincing while unconscious. Let’s hope she has more to do than meets Mr Nitish Kumar’s approval .

The highlight of the first ‘Jolly’ film was Saurabh Shukla  as the laconic sarcastic judge. It’s no different in Jolly LLB 2 where Shukla seems to have the best lines.Shukla has the time of his life lording over tis lines. At one point he tells the whining  lawyer-hero to stop his ‘Nirupa Roy type of dialogues.’

The film has sharp small town ambience to it, aided by actors who know the milieu like Annu Kapoor and Saurabh Shukla. This  should be fun.

Writer-director Subhash Kapoor seemed to have lost his moviemaking mojo on his last film Guddu Rangeela. In Jolly LLB 2 he seems to have got back his groove.
