The makers of ‘The Trial- Pyaar Kanoon Dhokha’ released the trailer of the upcoming web series on June 12. The courtroom drama marks Kajol's OTT debut and it will stream on Disney+ Hotstar on July 14.
After Noyonika Sengupta’s husband is put behind bars for accepting sexual favours as bribes to change verdicts, she is forced to return to work as a lawyer. She faces judgment from fellow lawyers and the public as she seeks justice, for herself and her family.
Sharing the trailer on social media, Kajol wrote, ‘Trials sirf courtroom mein nahi, zindagi mein bhi hote hain. Watch Noyonika Sen Gupta face the toughest trial of her life - #HotstarSpecials #TheTrial - Pyaar Kaanoon Dhokha, streaming from 14th July’
Jisshu Sengupta plays Kajol’s husband in the series.
Speaking about the series, Kajol told Variety, ‘The complexities are what defines a character to me and the layers surrounding Noyonika are what spoke to me when this role first came over.
Noyonika felt personal, I instantly felt protective about her and that reaffirmed my faith in choosing ‘The Trial – Pyaar, Kanoon, Dhoka’ on Disney+ Hotstar to be my first step into the long format. Suparn Varma has built a world where vulnerability of characters meet the cruel situations posed by life. The audience will feel for and feel one with Noyonika as she makes difficult choices, because I did.’
The Disney+ Hotstar series, directed by Suparn Verma, is an Indian adaptation of the American series, ‘The Good Wife’, starring Julianna Margulies.
