Bollywood actress Kajol discusses her OTT debut in “The Trial – Pyaar Kaanoon Dhokha” in this article.
‘The Trial – Pyaar Kaanoon Dhokha’ marks Kajol’s OTT debut after she dominated the silver screen for a good ten years. So, how does creating a web series differ from creating a film? Kajol doesn’t notice any distinction.
“Regardless of the format, a role is a role. It requires the same amount of hard work,” Kajol said at the trailer launch of the Disney+ Hotstar series in Mumbai on Monday.
Talking about the challenges she said,“It is a rather simple choice for me. I have always maintained that if I work, I will have fun, I will work with good people, and the script will always be my hero, always.”
Talking about the work involved, Kajol said: “Whether it is an OTT platform or a film, for me, a role is a role, both formats require the same amount of work. Perhaps, doing an eight-episode series for OTT required more time, but it is the same.”
Kajol added: “The work is the same. I am not different in any manner, my work is not different in any manner. I don’t think it is not that difficult a choice to make.”
When asked what scares her more, Love, Law or Betrayal, as the title of the series is ‘The Trail – Pyaar Kaanoon Dhokha’, Kajol said: “I don’t think I am scared of anything, using the word scared may not be right. But I do have a healthy wariness about all three. You cannot fall in love with closed eyes, you cannot play with the law, nor can you betray someone.”
The web series, which is based on the CBS programme “The Good Wife,” stars Kajol as a lawyer and housewife who has go back to work after her husband’s public scandal puts him in jail.
Suparn Varma, known for his work on “The Family Man” and “Rana Naidu,” is the series’ director. Sheeba Chaddha, Jisshu Sengupta, Alyy Khan, Kubbra Sait, and Gaurav Pandey also play significant roles. streaming starts on July 14.
