Director Subhash Kapoor, whose new film Jolly L.L.B. is a satire on the country’s judiciary system, says humour makes it easier for a message-based movie to reach a wide audience. The director, who had earlier helmed the satire Phas Gaye Re Obama, narrated an incident to prove his point.

“When you go to courts, there are about three-and-half crore cases pending in India. There are people in jail since 15 years and their hearing has not yet started. I met a guy at the Tis Hazari courts in Delhi. For his property, his family has declared him dead on papers, and he has been fighting a case since six years to prove that he is not dead, he is alive,” Subhash said here on Tuesday at the first look launch of Jolly L.L.B..
