Maamla Legal Hai

Would totally recommend this lighthearted comedy drama, 8 eps long - 30 mins each. While having a central plot with proper character building and subtle commentary on the justice system, each episode is (apparently) loosely based on true cases, some of which make you go "Really? That happened?"

More than anything else - this was a well written show. I heard this is one of the very few times (maybe the ONLY?) Netlix has collaborated with writers who've made stuff for TVF. No wonder. You can recognize the faces in this image and can tell that the acting is going to be good!

I ran the show in the background and it was enjoyable even then, you're bound to like it more if you pay proper attention. If you're looking for something to binge, something lighthearted but also thought-provoking, look no further.

After quite a time, it was nice to see something which strikes as knowledgeable, funny and stress Free.

It's about the competitiveness's between the professionals lawyers, politicals and a fight to achieve the might.

Episodes are of reasonable duration, cast is solid and acting is wonderful. Comedy and jokey tone remains all along and never makes it boring differentiating it from the past court based dramas/ movies.

Overall a pleasant and balanced series, can be watched with families (except some 'abuse talks' at certain points). No stress type aspects and no dull moment all along making it 'just a Wow'.

Maamla legal hai is a drama series directed by rahul pandey.

The series starts very meekishly for me. The jokes were seemingly lame, the intention was always there but something was really missing. It became evident as the series progressed and the series just caught its right pace. The emotions were missing, you cannot go comedy comedy comedy all the way, it will get stale after a point of time.

Ravi kishan is the star of this show. Starting off as a cocky, high ground lawyer, his character transitions to be a very likeable one, mainly due to his antics and the shades brought into his character. His equation with his father, though in brief sequences, was effective. Naila grewal impressed me a lot. She had to play a character who had to learn that there is always a distance between law and justice. I think she carried off that smug attitude really well. Nidhi bisht is funny. Her character started off well, but somewhere in between, her motives were not given importance. The writers had to develop her character more. The other characters are decent.

I think the series was confused whether it wants to be a comedy or a satire, because the writing has to be different for both. The series learnt that thing from the 4th or 5th episode onwards. The slight pokings at the lawyers' and judges' plight in this country helps the series. The series portrays different abrupt cases which were weird and wacky. The homour in those places seemed off, I mean the level of humour being generated with those cases was off point. Another gripe has to be the use of background score. It was almost present in all emotional scenes. The makers had little confidence on their audience and their writing, to be honest.

There are some humorous one-liners which are worth remembering. The short sitcom approach helps the series from being dragged on. A solid 7.5/10.

I have not felt frustrated at the end of a small 8-part miniseries in a long time. I craved many more episodes of this gripping, fulfilling, and hilariously funny legal drama.

Lawyers are considered bottom feeders until they achieve a certain prestige level, at which point all their judicial and legal sins are forgiven. Classism is alive and well in the legal profession too, and this show brilliantly illustrates that. The cases shown here are real and tangible, thorny turns of the road that have remained unresolved for decades. The episodes highlight real human drama and tragedy and the cost of justice denied through delay.

The characters are incredible. Ravi Kishan is the massive planet Jupiter around which the entire show revolves, and he executes this role with gravitas and finesse. This is a lawyer on the cusp of greatness, and he must choose his road. Naila Grewal represents the selfless, idealistic newcomer who still believes in the legal system and is unwilling to bend the rules in a broken system. Nidhi Bisht is the firecracker in the barn, the shameless, fearless lady lawyer who will go to any length to build her unrecognized career. Each knocks it out of the courtroom.

There must be an adjournment to the second season.

"Unveiling a tapestry of human emotions, the Netflix series is a riveting mix of legal drama and heartfelt storytelling. Led by Tyagi's compelling performance, complemented by the standout portrayal of Mantu and Miss Negi, the cast delivers superb acting that resonates with authenticity. Rahul Pandey's direction is masterful, weaving each episode with emotional depth and resonance. From laughter to tears, every episode engages viewers on a profound level, inviting them to connect with the characters' journeys. As the series culminates, it leaves a lingering thought on overcoming inhibitions and embracing new challenges. Undoubtedly, this is one of the finest legal dramas to grace the screen."
