The Trial Season 2: Plot
The show picks up right after season 1 ends, and Noyonika’s marriage has almost crumbled. Professionally, she is a formidable lawyer and somewhat of an expert in handling complex cases. But when a massage therapist accuses a powerful societal figure of sexual assault and no one wants to take up her case, Noyonika must figure out how to defend her while also excavating the real truth of the matter. As Noyonika takes up more complex cases, she also puts her job at jeopardy.
In her personal life, she also considers a divorce from her husband, Rajiv (Jisshu Sengupta), who is attempting a political comeback after the scandal of season 1. When he seeks Noyonika’s help, the lines between personal and professional start to blur. Her journey shifts from hesitation to confidence as she fights to protect both her family and her law firm from collapse.
The Trial Season 2: Cast
In The Trial season 2, Kajol returns as Noyonika Sengupta. Jisshu Sengupta, Alyy Khan, Sheeba Chaddha, Kubbra Sait, and Gaurav Pandey also return to the show. The cast also includes Sonali Kulkarni as Narayani Dhole, Rajiv’s political rival. Karanvir Sharma also joins the cast this season as Param Manjal, a lawyer and Noyonika’s partner in the firm.
The Defence
Kajol proved her mettle as an actor decades ago. When she is on screen, you cannot help but watch her excel at her craft. Just like in season 1, she is the heartbeat of the new season as well. Kajol’s real-life grit and tenacity reflect in Noyonika. Kajol lights up the screen, and her eyes draw you in.
The Prosecution
Kajol’s star power looms large over this show. She is yet to develop her OTT presence, and her movie star aura overshadows Noyonika. Interestingly, while her acting itself is commendable, you can’t help but think ‘she belongs on the big screen’ while looking at her. Unlike Sheeba Chaddha, she is yet to adapt to the OTT sphere.
The cinematography of the show, for the most part, doesn’t let you establish much of a personal connection with the characters. Most scenes are shot with the actor in focus (think iPhone cinematic mode, but more professional and better quality) with their backgrounds blurred. A lot of the scenes also have a bokeh effect.
