From OMG 2 To Criminal Justice, Top 5 Courtroom Dramas Streaming Now On OTT
Last Updated:
Discover 5 compelling courtroom dramas and movies on OTT—from Jolly LLB to OMG 2—that bring justice, satire, and powerful storytelling to your screen.
Indian cinema has always thrived on the thunder of courtroom dialogues — from Sunny Deol's iconic roar of 'Taarikh pe Taarikh!" to Arshad Warsi's deadpan satire in Jolly LLB. There's something irresistible about legal dramas — the pressure-cooker atmosphere of the courtroom, the slow-burn revelations, and the sheer thrill of truth battling power.
If you're a fan of edge-of-the-seat testimonies, intense cross-examinations, or courtroom chaos that's both heartwarming and hilarious, here are five courtroom-centric gems streaming across OTT platforms that are sure to deliver a gripping watch:
1. Kyo Kii… Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta – Prime Video
Govinda brings chaos and charm to this David Dhawan comedy with a courtroom twist. As Raj Malhotra, a lawyer who lies his way to the top, Govinda's world flips when his young son wishes he could only speak the truth — and poof, the wish comes true. What follows is pure madness in the courtroom as he's forced to argue cases without bending facts. With laugh-out-loud moments and a surprisingly poignant ending, this one flips the legal genre on its head.
2. Criminal Justice: A Family Matter (Season 4) – JioCinema (Hotstar)
Pankaj Tripathi returns as the unassuming yet brilliant Madhav Mishra in a season that delves into the shadows of a seemingly perfect family. When a nurse is murdered, emotions, betrayals, and secrets spill out in court. Tripathi's understated power and the show's layered storytelling make this a binge-worthy legal drama where every witness could be lying — or telling the brutal truth.
3. All The Best Pandya – ShemarooMe
A Gujarati courtroom comedy that surprises with its warmth. When a father's honour is at stake, a son takes the matter to court — not to punish, but to protect. Set against a backdrop of generational clashes, the film weaves comedy and courtroom banter with heartfelt emotion. A delightful sleeper hit that leaves you smiling and introspecting.
4. OMG 2 – Netflix
Part satire, part social reform, OMG 2 dares to take religion and education into the courtroom. When a teenager is expelled on charges of obscenity, his father (Pankaj Tripathi again) challenges the system with help from a divine guide (played by Akshay Kumar). It's not just about a case — it's about the stigma around sex education in India. Bold, timely, and emotionally moving, this film argues for truth with the sincerity of a prayer.
5. Jolly LLB – YouTube
Before Jolly LLB 2 made headlines, this sleeper hit laid the foundation. Arshad Warsi shines as a lawyer chasing fame who finds himself taking on a powerful legal system after a tragic hit-and-run. Sharp writing, dark humour, and moments of quiet rebellion make Jolly LLB a courtroom classic that resonates even years later.
These courtroom stories aren't just about legal technicalities — they capture the chaos of truth, the complexity of morality, and the raw human need for justice. Whether you're in it for a laugh, a good cry, or a wake-up call, justice is streaming near you. Court is in session.
