The Trial brings fourth Kajol as a housewife, starts working as a lawyer after a long gap.
Writing about the web show, a Twitter user mentioned, “The Trial starring Kajol is literally a cheap copy of The Good Wife. The only difference is that in The Good Wife Julianna Margulies, the lead, acted real well, whereas Kajol is just saying the lines.”
Someone tweeted, “Court cases are won and investigations are completed faster than Maggi is made by an intern who resumes law practice after 13 long years, and yet, somehow wins all her cases, something even a pro lawyer would find hard, in this disaster of a series.” A tweet read, “The Trial is made with only one goal – to defame men. Please stop this woke feminism.”
Adding to it was Kajol’s first onscreen to date left many fans in shock. Some have praised her chemistry with Alyy Khan. Someone wrote, “Didn’t expect this from her (Kajol). The kissing scene is not the best to be honest.” Another read, “Kajol and Alyy together (heart emojis).” Prasing Kajol, another person tweeted, “Oh the jail visitation scene! This hits different now!!”
Streaming platform Disney Plus hotstar will be streaming this series helmed by Suparn Verma, which is a Hindi adaptation of The Good Wife. The Trial also stars Jisshu Sengupta, Sheeba Chaddha and Kubbra Sait, and others.
Kajol had earlier spoken about her ott debut with Disney Plus hotstar title The Trial. “It is a rather simple choice for me. I have always maintained that if I work, I will have fun, I will work with good people, and the script will always be my hero, always… Whether it is an OTT platform or a film, for me, a role is a role, both formats require the same amount of work. Perhaps, doing an eight-episode series for OTT required more time, but it is the same.”
