let's be honest. i know this is going to hurt but people only care about us when their ass is on fire (litigation) or when they wanna further their commercial intersts( corporate). are there any lawyers who are known outside of the legal circle? worshipped by common people or atleast known by them. I'll start with Mr Salve - because of the kulbhushan matter - he has garnered a good amount of publicity from the educated indian non-lawyers. but still, I am looking for penetration like SRK, hardik pandya and the likes - where even play school kids want to become like them

I mean this in the most respectful way. have no intentions of spewing hate on the profession and the professionals. law is love

You wouldn't have to ask if there were any.

Ram Jethmalani and Kapil Sibbal reached that level of fame long ago.

nah, neither is a household name. pandya is more widely known

priyanka khimani ma'am is now known within the bombay entertainment space quite well.

What is your obsession with calling 'Ma'am' ?

respect. just how one is reqd to behave around seniors.

Manan Lahoty, Yash Ashar and Sandip Bhagat.

are you kidding me, I am an avid linkedin stalker cum lawyer and i haven't heard of the last two

If despite being a lawyer you haven't heard of the last two, that's on you mate. You should read more.
