This is Fox Star Studios’ 100 crore hat-trick after M S Dhoni: The Untold Story and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil,” Vijay added in a statement here. “The success of Jolly LLB 2 shows the strength of the franchise that is being helmed by superstar Akshay Kumar who has constantly chosen roles that he has made his own and has always reinvented himself for audiences to shower so much love on him. We are thankful to director Subhash Kapoor for his brilliant script which reinforces that audiences will embrace good content always,” he said.
