Kajol will play the lead in Disney+ Hotstar’s series The Good Wife. The show is a Hindi adaptation of the American television series which starred Julianna Margulies in the lead role.

Kajol on Thursday shared a 30-second announcement video of the show where she is seen in a lawyer’s attire confidently walking in what seems like a law firm’s office. She looks at the camera and says “Shuru karein?”

The show’s tagline reads, “Pyaar. Kanoon. Dhokha.” This is the actor’s first show on an OTT platform. She had previously starred in the Netflix release Tribhanga, which starred her alongside Tanvi Azmi and Mithila Palkar, and was directed by Renuka Shahane.

In an earlier statement, Kajol said, “Being an avid fan of digital series, the concept has always been intriguing. And, after following cool shows like Rudra and Aarya, I knew there was no other platform than Disney+ Hotstar to start my series journey.”

The Good Wife started airing in the US in 2009 and went on for seven seasons. The show followed a woman named Alicia Florrick whose politician husband gets caught in a sex scandal while she has to stand by him, whilst also restarting her career as a lawyer.
