Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi’s upcoming Jolly LLB 3 landed in legal trouble soon after shooting for the movie began.
Ajmer District Bar Association President Chandrabhan Singh Rathod filed a case against the making of the film, saying that the content undermined judicial integrity, an Indian media outlet reported.
The court set the petition for hearing on May 7 as the petitioner sought to stop the filming for the movie.
