Kajol poses during the promotion of her upcoming TV Series ‘The Trial’, in Mumbai.

Kajol, who will be seen as Noyonika Sengupta in the upcoming gritty courtroom drama “The Trial,” has immersed herself in the role, connecting with the character on a profound level.  “The Trial — Pyaar, Kaanoon, Dhokha” follows the journey of Noyonika as she embarks on a journey that truly makes her stand the test of time after her husband’s betrayal.

She navigates through the curveballs life throws at her. She echoes the sentiments of countless mothers, stating, “What I love about Noyonika’s character and one thing that I absolutely resonate with is that she is a woman and a mother.

“She does what she needs to do in the matter, there’s no choice. It’s a very practical mindset that I think every mother will understand.” She added: “There are times in your life where you reach a very practical point of view that if something needs to be done, it will be done regardless of whether the world may think it’s not the correct thing to do.

“They may say that she’s saying something and doing something else but if you really want to do it then leave your conscience on the side and just brazen it out and that’s her (Noyonika).” The show also stars Sheeba Chaddha, Jisshu Sengupta, Alyy Khan, Kubbra Sait and Gaurav Pandey in key roles. Produced by Banijay Asia and directed by Suparn S. Varma, ‘The Trial’ will begin streaming on July 14 on Disney+ Hotstar.

Meanwhile, “Trial – Pyaar, Kaanoon, Dhokha,” which is a gritty drama full of tension, suspense and a whirlwind of emotional complexities, incorporates social themes in its narrative, revealed director Suparn S Varma.  Elaborating on the point, Suparn said, “The interesting element of “The Trial — Pyaar, Kaanoon, Dhokha” is that we got to incorporate a lot of societal themes into the show because at the end of the day — whatever is happening around us, result in crime or lawsuits, or something legal.” The show focuses on the character of Noyonika Sengupta, who is forced to return to the law world after 13 years after her husband’s imprisonment in order to support her family. Noyonika has to move forward with a steely resolve as she navigates through the many curveballs life throws at her as she braces the storm she is thrown into which will bind her and her family together.

peaking of how he incorporated these elements in the show, Varma added, “We have kind of played with the idea of it playing out in Noyonika’s life (in Kajol’s character) or around her colleagues, and translating that as well as to what’s happening in society, with the legal cases that she has to grapple out of which some reflect with what’s happening in her life.” He further mentioned, “There is political intrigue in the show but it’s more done in a way with characters’ ambitions, who are out there thinking about themselves selfishly and wanting to achieve it all.”
