New Delhi, July 14 (Ians) The purpose of a trial is to ensure that the defendant gets a fair assessment of all evidence against him or her, and so, it is a structured process wherein the facts of a case are presented to a jury, which decides if the defendant is guilty or not. If the ruling in the case is found to be not maintainable, then it can be challenged in a higher court.
The only difference is that unlike in the US, India does not have a trial by jury system!
The process of trial as enumerated in our Constitution is that “trial is the right of a person”, or that the trial of a court should be a “fair trial”. And that could be a huge challenge if a story around the American courts is adapted to suit the Indian milieu and its legal system.

Kajol, one of India’s best-loved actors, stars in Disney+ Hotstar series “The Trial – Pyaar, Kaanoon, Dhokha,” the Indian adaptation of CBS series “The Good Wife.”
The courtroom drama sees Kajol star as Noyonika Sengupta, a housewife who is forced to return to work as a lawyer after her husband’s public scandal puts him behind bars. Produced by Banijay Asia and Ajay Devgn FFilms, “The Trial” is directed by Suparn S. Varma (“Rana Naidu”).
Kajol is a huge fan of “The Good Wife.” “I loved the characters, I love the whole show, I binge watched it,” Kajol told Variety. Noyonika is the Alicia role that Julianna Margulies played in the original.
Unlike the U.S., India does not have a trial by jury system. That changes the judicial process depicted and the storytelling in the adaptation, Kajol explained.
“The culture of India is completely different. The pressure is different.

Director and show runner of ‘The Trial: Pyaar, Kaanoon, Dhokha’ Suparn S Varma spoke about how he reimagined the series from ‘The Good Wife’. He said: “The way an Indian woman reacts to certain situations is different from the way it would unfold in the West. That has been kind of woven in, in the entire theme, in the characters graph and the storyline of the show.”
“We also kind of played around with a few other characters that were there in season one and built them up more, prop them up more, because we knew where the graph was going in the seasons later on.”
He added: “Since we knew where they are headed, we could give them weightage early on to the show and build them more in and around Noyonika’s life because we actually had the luxury of seeing the complete show, which even the creators of the original did not.

Netflix has renewed Rana Naidu, the Indian adaptation of Showtime’s hit crime drama Ray Donovan, for a second season.
Rana Naidu‘s first season, which launched on March 10, held Netflix’s no. 1 spot as the most-watched series in India for its first three weeks of release. The show continues to rank among the streamer’s top 10 series in India and previously trended in global top 10 for non-English TV shows for two weeks.
Much like Ray Donovan, which famously stars Liev Schreiber, the Indian show follows the titular character Rana Naidu (played by Rana Daggubati), who makes a living by fixing the messes left behind by his famous clients. Famed as India’s go-to “fixer of the stars,” Naidu nevertheless struggles to cope with his own domestic situation, thanks to a fraught relationship with his wife and two children.
