The Supreme Court will hear the plea by Fox Star Studios on Friday, challenging the Bombay High Court order that a three-member committee would hold review of the film Jolly LLB 2 before its release.
The bench headed by Chief Justice Jagdish Singh Khehar, agreed to hear the plea by the producer of the film, which has contended that there could not be any scrutiny of the movie after film censor board has given it a U/A certificate.
The Bombay High Court had ordered the review of the film after it was told that the film shows the legal profession ‘in a poor light’.
The film, which is a sequel to 2013 film Jolly LLB, is scheduled to release on 10 February 2017.
