Criminal Justice A Family Matter trailer: Pankaj Tripathi is the sword, steed and shield as another complicated legal drama unfolds. Watch
Ever since the first season of Criminal Justice found its way to the various screens of this country, actor Pankaj Tripathi's portrayal of lawyer Madhav Mishra has gripped the audience and their attention. After a long wait the show is coming back with a new and exciting season, where things will get more personal and twisted, hence the name 'A Family Matter'. JioHotstar just dropped the trailer for the new season, and Madhav will again be fighting an uphill battle trying to defend his client Dr Raj Nagpal, played by Mohd. Zeeshan Ayub.
We are introduced to the case in hand at the start of the trailer, and Raj has been accused of killing his girlfriend Roshni Saluja, played by Asha Negi. Raj is already a married man, and his wife Anju, played by Surveen Chawla, seeks out the help of Madhav. As the lawyer familiarises himself with the case, he assures his client and tells him, 'I am your sword, steed and shield in this battle.' Raj clarifies that he didn't kill Roshni, and he was actually trying to save her, as we see a shot of him holding on to her body drenched in blood.

On the other side, Inspector Gauri is questioning potential witnesses and people from the same apartment complex, where two different people acknowledge Raj and Roshni's extra-marital affair, and one even says, 'People like Raj don't leave their wives; they just have minor transgressions.' Without a doubt it is quite easy to point the finger at the married couple when the victim is the 'other woman', and that's exactly what happens as Anju also gets arrested as a co-conspirator. Her lawyer also enters this already confusing ordeal, and Madhav makes a witty remark about a third team entering an already ongoing match.
With the story getting more twisted with each facet revealed and the public prosecutor Lekha Agastya, played by Shweta Basu Prasad, breathing down Madhav's and his client's necks, loyalties and relationships will surely be tested in the new season of the courtroom drama.
Apart from Pankaj Tripathi, the cast of the series will include Mohd. Zeeshan Ayub, Surveen Chawla, Asha Negi, Khushboo Atre, Barkha Singh, Kalyanee Mulay, and Shewta Basu Prasad. The series will be available to stream on JioHotstar from May 29.

Kesari 2 On OTT: Akshay Kumar-Starrer To Stream Online, When And Where To Watch
Mumbai: Those who couldn't watch Akshay Kumar's starrer Kesari 2 on the big screen can now watch it on OTT. The film, which also features R Madhavan and Ananya Panday, is all set to kickstart its digital journey on JioHotstar on June 13. Set in the aftermath of the Jallianwala Bagh massacre, Kesari Chapter 2 follows C Sankaran Nair (Akshay Kumar), a "principled barrister who takes on the British Empire in court, demanding accountability for all the people who lost their lives that fateful day." R Madhavan plays the formidable colonial counsel, while Ananya Panday essays the role of a driven law student who supports Nair in his unprecedented legal crusade. Excited about the OTT release, Akshay in a press note said, "Kesari Chapter 2 tells the story of an extraordinary man who chose to stand against an empire, risking everything to bring justice to the victims of one of history's darkest moments. Portraying C. Sankaran Nair was a deeply humbling experience, a reminder of how courage and conviction can shake even the mightiest powers. This film isn't just a courtroom drama; it's a tribute to truth, resistance, and the spirit of India. I'm proud that after its successful theatrical run, this powerful story will now reach even more viewers as it streams on JioHotstar from June 13th." R Madhavan also opened up about working in the historical courtroom drama. He shared, "Neville McKinley is a complex character -- a fierce defender of the British Empire's interests and a formidable opponent to Akshay Kumar's character. Playing this complex character allowed me to explore the harsh realities of colonial power and the moral conflicts within that system. Kesari Chapter 2 is more than just a film; it's a gripping portrayal of a historical battle fought not just with weapons, but with words, laws, and ideologies."
