7 Bollywood Actors Who Will Play Lawyers On Screen In 2018

We all love courtroom dramas. Let it be Sunny Deol’s iconic Tarikh pe tarikh scene from Damini or Amitabh Bachchan’s No means no from Pink. When the law is incorporated in cinema, we always tend to get some amazing films – let’s not forget Jolly LLB. Lawyers don’t only act serious in Bollywood but they also have a strong sense of humour.

This year Bollywood will see some fantastic actors taking the black coat and playing lawyers in powerful stories.

Richa Chadha

Richa will be seen playing a public prosecutor in the upcoming film Section 375: Marzi ya Jabardasti. The film is about the misuse of rape laws in India, using an ambiguous case as the background. It will be directed by Manish Gupta, produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak.

Akshaye Khanna

Akshaye Khanna will be as a lawyer alongside Richa Chadha, in Section 375: Marzi ya Jabardasti. While Richa Chadha plays the public prosecutor, Akshaye Khanna will take on the role of a high-flying defence lawyer.
