Keeping aside Kajol's fans who are elated to watch her on OTT, the Janta has mixed reviews for the The Trial.
The Trial is an Indian adaptation of the American legal drama The Good Wife, which aired on CBS from 2009 to 2016. The series follows Noyonika Sengupta (Kajol), a housewife who resumes her career as a lawyer after her husband Rajiv (Jisshu Sengupta), a judge, is arrested for corruption and sexual misconduct. Noyonika balances her personal and professional life while dealing with media scrutiny, the legal system, and her husband’s betrayal. The show started streaming on Disney+ Hotstar last Friday and after the first weekend, here is the reaction from the Janta on the show!
It's no doubt that Kajol's fans are going gaga all over Twitter about her look, dialogues, and acting skills but there were many who loved the supporting cast of the show, especially Kubbra Sait, Alyy Khan, and Sheeba Chaddha. While there were praises of the show for its adaptation, dialogues, scenes, acting, and more, there were some who didn't like the show or didn't enjoy it fully as a courtroom drama.

#TheTrial: I have no clue how you are doing it, but each role you are on is a different being. We wish more

The Trial had a wonderful cast, but the storyline was loose at places. Couldn't keep me glued ( I went to fix me a cup of tea /coffee in between & didn't miss much) Kohra kept me glued, though predictable at times the storyline +1 pic.twitter.com/mU25ECMg2g
Idk why nobody is talking about @Alyy Khan. His character Vishal in #TheTrial deserves applause. This character really stood out to me and I really felt pity for him at last.

I liked the boss-girl energy of Malini Khanna in #TheTrial. @SheebaChadda is brilliant especially jab wo attacking mode mai rheti hai. She was like the corporate shark jiske sath mess nahi karna chaiye. pic.twitter.com/optIurQCzD

Rewatching #famegame to delete the bitter taste #TheTrial left in my tongue. #Madhuridixit was beyond perfect from start to end and even the story, direction was so good. Such a shame we didn’t get season 2 of it and 50+ male actors are renewed for their b grade shit everytime ! pic.twitter.com/TeQ8fRDDzL

It's absolutely impressive..
A praiseworthy combination of a great
storyline & stellar performances makes
this a must watch Eight Episode Series..!!
Watch it on #HotstarSpecials #TheTrial
You nailed it @itsKajolD pic.twitter.com/9NMfhE6Jo3
#TheTrial works in bits and pieces and never really shines as an engaging court room drama that it promises to be.

Having a seasoned actor like #Kajol leading the show makes it special in more ways than one and the actor delivered a fine performance as expected.#HotstarSpecials pic.twitter.com/A868kEr16d
#TheTrial series ke har episode mai kam se kam ik do aise dialogs hote hai jo bht hit krte hai, never seen this kind of intense dialogue writing before. #Kajol compliments every dialog in the way she delivers them. A perfect and a must watch! pic.twitter.com/x7U6GjR5kw

I have seen and loved The Good Wife whose Indianised remake #TheTrial is. @itsKajolD is fantastic as a fiery mother and lawyer. @AlyyKhan06 gives a very competent performance.

But, the courtroom scenes lack and are not as convincing. Overall it's still a good watch.
This was the most amazing scene from #TheTrial on Hotstar. Yaar women should learn to support each other when faced with challenges. Especially in corporates. From my personal experience, I can tell that this is one thing that lacks in almost every office.Sheeba Chadda nailed it. pic.twitter.com/5qNamkrFwi

One more reason to watch #TheTrial @KubbraSait what a wonderful performance

On screen it feels so effortless but she has made it look so easy lots of hard work is there for sure...
Stay blessed and keep coming on screen we love ur craft...
i really loved the supporting cast for this show, everyone has done such a good job, especially sheeba chaddha who is my fave🥰 #thetrial pic.twitter.com/YgG9dcjR4H

I was in an unhappy marriage and was going through a lot, I saw #TheTrial and had to say,@itsKajolD was playing my character. The dialogue in the end “Shadi to bas nibhane ke lie hoti hai. kushi, nakushi to bas dost puchte hai” was so true. Why do people cheat in a relationship? pic.twitter.com/NVjzQSIfOb
