With wit and humor by his side, the uncanny lawyer Madhav Mishra, reprised by Pankaj Tripathi returns for the third installment of Criminal Justice along with Shweta Basu Prasad, Swastika Mukherjee, Purab Kohli, Aditya Gupta, Deshna Dugad and Gaurav Gera. Getting into the nitty-gritty of what it means to shoot a legal drama, director Rohan Sippy describes the challenges and excitement of the job.

He said, “The court sequences are obviously at the center of a legal show like CJ. Because of scheduling reasons, we had set an almost impossible target to achieve… but thanks to some great design by our cinematographer, and brilliant collaboration with our associate Shiraz Haider, we were able to not only capture great performances by the lawyers Pankaj Tripathi and Shweta Basu Prasad but dynamize them with camera movement almost throughout, which helps with the pacing and overall edge of the show. It was also extremely challenging to pull off an extended thrill sequence within the remand home, which completely reinterpreted what was on paper and hopefully will keep the audience on the edge of their seats… and of course, getting to work with the new cast for the season like Purab and Swastika was a highlight too.”
