The Trial

I'm uncertain about why this series received a low rating, but personally, I enjoyed it a lot as it kept me thoroughly engaged. Nowadays, we often witness excessive use of abusive language, cuss words, and unnecessary sex scenes in many series. However, this particular series refrained from incorporating such elements, despite having the opportunity to do so. It impressively depicted the struggles of a woman trying to protect her family at any cost, while also avoiding over-dramatization. The series also portrayed the significance of a woman's career. Though at times, I found it slightly drawn-out, I am eagerly anticipating the next seasons.

Noyonika Sengupta( Kajol) is having a sound marriage,( or so her friends think) two beautiful kid daughters and a seemingly successful hubby who's a judge. And then her world comes crashing down when her husband's sex videos are released on social media( Jisshu Sengupta). A case is also made out against him of bribery, of accepting sexual favours etc. He is arrested and sent to jail. In his absence Noyonika Sengupta has to let go of the house, bank accounts of her husband. She doesn't work aby longer but once she was a hotshot lawyer. Her old friend Vishal helps her by giving her a position of intern on probation in his law firm. Noyonika and her two impressionable daughters are socially humiliated at her husband / their father having been incarcerated on bribery, and sexual escapade charges. But she carries on gamely and tries to explain the situation as honestly as possible, to her kids. She's deeply hurt by her hubby's wayward behaviour and infidelity but keeps her emotions in check.

Kajol as Noyonika Sengupta is brilliant. At times quite hyper but overall quite professional. It's just that her cases in the court appear to rather facile. Subplots are rather weak. The drama is not as taut as the story would demand. Acting wise as mentioned Kajol is pretty convincing in portraying her inner betrayal and at the same time in maintaining a professional facade. Jisshu does not have much drama in his character. He's passable. Kubra Sait is a revelation! Ally Khan as Vishal, Noyonika's good friend and once date in college, is quite good. Screenplay is a tad loose. Watchable but not great.

The series is just another court room stories what we have seen before in guilty minds and a season of criminal justice featuring kirti

The series is inspired by a British series called the good wife but here yet the good wife character has to come now the ongoing season is just showcasing a lawyer..this season has just focused on some cases and how the law firm solves it..the series is slow in pace and lagging in 8 long episodes where the main content of a wife as a lawyer fighting for her husband is kept for another season..

The performances are just average and nothing extraordinary with top and renowned actors

It would be good if they would had focused on the wife fighting for her accused husband.

Anwar Says: I was waiting for this series, not disappointed but not happy either. Adapted from GOOD WIFE, the American web series is not simply a courtroom drama but sheds light on impact of media trial, love triangle , family feuds, behaviour of children on father's betrayal, however unable to conclude. Suparn S Verma should have gone deeper into the screenplay and may have been a better outcome.

Kajol is probably the best actress of this era and she as a multifaceted and resilient woman shines both in courtroom scenes ,as well as in emotional family scenes and handling the growing children. Kubra Sait as Sana is such a cool character and is an integral part of the series and so Alyy Khan putting huge mark. Sheeba Chaddha, Kiran Kumar , Gaurav Pandey and Amir Ali have put their best.

Trial touched some very important cases of social importance but not able to bring it to logical end and it was also shocking to see a top law firm has allowed an intern to handle such sensitive cases . Kiran Kumar leaving the firm for absolutely no reason is als unconvincing. Watch it for Kajol only.

I was excited to watch Kajol as a lawyer first time in her career. But all expectations faded away after watching the series because it was centered around the family drama instead of the court room drama and whatever they have shown failed to entertain me.

Kajol as lawyer was missing most of the time, I would have love to watch her debating in the court in spite of having personal problems. The start look promising and setting stage for that court room drama but as it progressed further into more episodes that excitement ended. Characters are good and performed well but Disney-hotstar need to inspire from Criminal Justice for this series.
