Akshay Kumar's upcoming courtroom drama Jolly LLB 2 finds itself in a legal soup. A tabloid reports that footwear giant Bata has sent legal notices to the team of the film for defamation and commercial disparagement after the brand was run down in a dialogue. 

Bata has a contention with the scene shown in the trailer of the film which has Annu Kapoor's character humiliating Akshay's character by saying, "Kya tum Bata ke joote pehenkar aur terrycot ka shirt pehenkar humse zabaan lada rahe hai?"

The notice sent by the brand states the film should immediately pull down the trailer with that dialogue from all online sites and theatres. It has also demanded a written apology for using the company's trademark and tarnishing their reputation and an undertaking that the brand shall not be tarnished further. Interestingly, Akshay is the face of a rival footwear brand.
