Recently, Kajol debuted in OTT with a series called ‘The Trial - Love, Kanoon, Dhokha’, which is an Indian version of the American show ‘The Good Wife.’ Legal and courtroom series and movies have gained popularity and critical acclaim in recent days and viewers are always on the lookout for something new to watch. Courtroom dramas teach viewers how the Indian judicial system works, highlight interesting instances, and delve into the system's complexity.

In addition to entertaining audiences, courtroom dramas provide insightful and thought-provoking narratives. After Kajol's 'The Trial' release, let’s check out some of the best legal or courtroom films and series:

Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai

In this film, we tag along with many court sessions as lawyer PC Solanki (Played by Manoj Bajpayee) takes on a difficult new case. ‘Sirf Ek Bandaa Kaafi Hai,’ which is based on the real-life prosecution and conviction of a self-styled 'godman' Asaram Bapu, who preyed upon naive young girls, is a sensitive film. 

Criminal Justice

In this gripping courtroom drama from Hotstar Specials, a young guy called Aditya is on trial for murder. His ordeal in the Indian criminal court system is examined, as are his attempts to establish his innocence. 

Vaashi

Tovino Thomas and Keerthy Suresh provide excellent performances in the lead characters in this courtroom drama, ‘Vaashi’. The movie shows issues like feminism, consent, sexual abuse, and assault.

Jolly LLB 1 & 2

Both 'Jolly LLB' and 'Jolly LLB 2' are directed by Subhash Kapoor and are comedic courtroom dramas set in India. These movies focus on a struggling lawyer named Jagdishwar Mishra known as Jolly. These two films provide a sarcastic but emotional look at the Indian justice system and society at large.

Guilty Minds

The legal drama is refreshing and realistic that also shows how the characters' lives outside of the courtroom. The performances are commendable. Shriya Pilgaonkar and Varun Mitra play pivotal roles in the series. 

Your Honor

The Indian show ‘Your Honour’ is based on the hit Israeli show ‘Kvodo’. The series, starring Jimmy Shergill and directed by Eeshwar Nivas, maintains the original's tension and excitement while delving into traditional Indian topics like family values and judicial corruption.
