Film review of Jolly LLB.

Subhash Kapoor,who is generally known for writing as well as directing satirical comical dramas,comes up with another masterpiece work after "Phas Gaye Re Obama",in the name of "Jolly LLB".Based on the 1999 hit and run case of Sanjeev Nanda,,the movie shows the story of a struggling lawyer,who comes to Delhi and as fate has for him in store,takes over a very high profile case involving a hit and run driver.He files a PIL in court against his own idol's case,and thus begins his journey against one of the strongest lawyers in the country.The movie has been executed in a very comical way,shifting to a serious environment whenever necessary,and the humorous touch that it offers,makes the movie more interesting,realistic and lively.

Poster - The movie is a courtroom comedy movie that shows the events taking place inside a courtroom in a very comical and hilarious way.In the main poster of the movie,we come to see two people dressed as lawyers voicing against each other and the blind folded lady representing justice stands between them,in order to separate them.The tagline used is "We Believe in Justice".Although,the poster is a little clumsy,but still it is somehow able to depict the main idea behind the plot of the movie.So,overall the poster achieves success in delivering it's intention to the audience.

Title - The title of the movie clearly speaks about the main plot of the movie,which by all means is related to law and court rooms.The main lead character,so introduced as Jolly(Jagdish Tyagi),is clearly shown to be an LLB,whose actions and decisions form the main crux of the story.However,the director has very cleverly not given any hint of what his probable actions or decisions might be,through the title,in order to draw audience to the theatres.

Story Line - The story starts at Delhi,depicting a night incident,where a car driver fully drunk,driving with full speed,runs the car over a footpath,resulting in death of many street dwellers.The scene then shifts to Meerut,where Arshad Warsi,is introduced as Jagdish Tyagi aka Jolly to the audience.The film then shows,his life as a struggling lawyer and how he faces problems every day.He then decides to move to Delhi,to pursue a better career.There by fate,he takes over the high profile case involving a hit and run driver,against his own idol lawyer,Tejinder Rajpal(Boman Irani).Although,he initially does it for fame and to earn money,but later a series of events, makes him serious and fight the case sincerely.Thus begins his fight for justice against one of the strongest lawyers in the country.

Acting - Arshad Warsi,as Jolly, a struggling lawyer,who fights for justice and in the end appears winner,is able to impress the audience with his acting skills.He also deserves special mention for some funny,witty and humorous one liners,that he delivers with ease in the movie.He is quickly able to change his expressions from comical to a serious one,as to when his character demands.

Boman Irani as Tejinder Rajpal,a high profile greedy lawyer,as well as the main antagonist of the story does his job well.He proves his versatility once again.

Amrita Rao,as Sandhya,Jolly's girl friend and a school teacher,has very little scope of acting.But still she chalks out her role well.Her glamorous and sweet avatar,adds value to her on screen presence.

Saurabh Shukla,as justice Tripathi,does ample justice to his role.The rest of supporting cast,is also well enough and carry their role well.

Music - The music of this film is decent and the movie comprises of five tracks,all of whom are decent up to the mark.The music scores 6/10.

Overall,the movie scores 8.5/10.
