Jolly LLB is a 2013 Indian Hindi-language black comedy legal drama film written and directed by Subhash Kapoor and produced by Fox Star Studios. Released on 15 March 2013, the film stars Arshad Warsi, Boman Irani, Amrita Rao, and Saurabh Shukla and revolves around the early life of Advocate Jagdish Tyagi, also known as Jolly, and focuses on his attempt to earn six innocent labourers their justice and his journey against the monopolistic behavior of the rich and judicial corruption. The storyline is inspired by the 1999 hit-and-run case of Sanjeev Nanda and a minor reference to the Priyadarshini Mattoo case.

Plot

In 2009, Advocate Jagdish Tyagi, also known as Jolly, is a Delhi-based lawyer living with his sister's husband, Pratap, and is in a relationship with Sandhya. He happens to witness prominent criminal defense lawyer, Advocate Tejinder Rajpal, successfully defend Rahul Dewan, a boy from a high-society family in a sessions court, who has been accused of drunk driving in a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and causing the deaths of six labourers sleeping on the footpath six months ago. Jolly, desperate for money and fame, decides to pursue the case and files a PIL in the court against Rahul Dewan. Jolly's neighbour, Kaul Saab gifts him his office as a chamber, because Kaul Saab's daughter was raped and murdered by a policeman's son, who was also successfully defended by Rajpal. Kaul Saab takes this to be an opportunity to receive some justice through Jolly.

After initially reprimanding Jolly for his mistakes in filing the PIL and presenting the press reports as evidence, Judge Sunderlal Tripathi warns Jolly to collect some valid evidence before the next hearing. Jolly then runs into Albert Pinto, who claims to have witnessed the accident, but soon learns that he is a lackey of Rajpal and was being used to extract more money from the Dewan family. As part of the deal, Pinto gives Jolly a share of the money and turns hostile in court. However, Sandhya and Kaul Saab chide Jolly for compromising on justice for his greed, provoking him to return the money to Rajpal and challenge him to win the case.

With the help of Pratap, Jolly collects the video footage of the car involved in the accident and presents it to the court. Rajpal counters that the car was driven by the Dewan family's driver and the footage was fake. Jolly refutes it by successfully cross-examining the driver, who finally admits that he had registered a false testimony. Judge Tripathi then orders the police to provide a bodyguard for Jolly after he is manhandled by Rajpal's colleagues. Although Sub-Inspector Satbir Rathi, who is also on Rajpal's payroll, tries to sabotage him, Jolly, with the help of his bodyguard, Constable Haldiram, leaves for Gorakhpur after learning that Sadakant Mishra, a survivor of the accident, stays there.

Jolly, after passing through many hurdles, successfully brings Mishra to the court. Rajpal tries to scuttle proceedings but the hesitant Tripathi overrules him. Mishra reveals the truth of the accident; that night, he and his relatives were sleeping on the footpath when Rahul Dewan drove his Land Cruiser over them, except Mishra. When he saw Mishra witnessing what he did, Rahul Dewan backed his car, hoping to run over him, but instead ran over his leg, resulting in it being amputated. Mishra also states that Rathi had threatened him after the accident and fabricated the investigation, and that he was only allowed to go after he offered his hard-earned money and jewellery for his sister's marriage to Rathi. Mishra also identifies Rahul Dewan as the one who drove the car. After the emotional closing arguments by Rajpal and Jolly, Tripathi directs the police department to suspend Rathi and initiate a criminal inquiry against him, and also declares Rahul Dewan as guilty of the crime and sentences him to seven years of imprisonment. As Jolly walks out receiving praises, Rajpal sits crestfallen over losing a case for the first time.

Critical reception

Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave the film 3.5 stars and said "Jolly LLB is a power-packed courtroom drama. But, most importantly, it celebrates the spirit of the common man seeking justice and impartiality most effectively. Just don't miss this jolly good film!". Anupama Chopra of the Hindustan Times said parts of the film are "laugh-out-loud funny, but underneath the humour is an angry critique of the system, so easily manipulated by the rich and so difficult to penetrate for the poor."
