According to ETV Bharat, Bidkar said, "The teaser of the film, 'Jolly LLB 3', has been released, and actors Akshay Kumar and Arshad Warsi have promoted it by wearing lawyers' bands (bows). Due to this, the image of lawyers has been tarnished through electronic media, and the legal profession has been insulted in the film. Therefore, we had approached the civil court and sought a restraining order against the film."
He added, "Accordingly, Judge JG Pawar has summoned the producers and actors of the film to appear before the court on August 28."
Till now, neither the makers nor the actors have given any statement about the petition.
