This show is so engrossing that I am now impatient to watch its predecessor, âCriminal Justiceâ (Season One) whenever I have time to spare: I had missed it. This is a wonderful amalgam of drama, social message, humor and courtroom thrills and twists. The 8-episode show also gets into the grimy truth of under-trials in jails and also hints at excesses committed by seemingly normal husbandsâso what is the point that makes their actions questionable, illegal, punishable by law, or otherwise?
The dicey question starts at home for counsel Madhav Mishra (Pankaj Tripathi), summoned from his wedding night to defend Anuradha Chandra (Kirti Kulhari), who has stabbed her husband with daughter Rhea (Adrija Sinha) as a seeming eyewitness. He leaves his devoted wife in the small town and leaves for Mumbai, without bothering about her feelings and later not even communicating with her.
