It is a case of reel life borrowing from real, though understandably no one is willing to go on record to admit it. Subhash Kapoor's Jolly LLB seeks its starting-point from the Alistair Perreira hit-and-run case which hit headlines in 2006.

The film in fact opens with a sequence showing a hit-and-run incident whose details seem uncannily similar to the Pereira case.

Understandably the film's director Subhash Kapoor is wary of admitting to real-life resemblances lest the film gets slapped with more litigation alleging the film to be anti-judiciary.

Says Kapoor cautiously, `It is based on a few real-life hit-and-run cases. `

About the legal notices that the film satirizing the judicial system has received Subhash Kapoor says, `The legal department is working on it. The Delhi High Court refused to 'stay' the film's release. Hopefully that takes care of the matter. `
