Actor Kajol is all set for her OTT debut with Disney+ Hotstar's upcoming series The Trial - Pyaar Kaanoon Dhokha. With immense feature credits on the silver screen, the actor says, "Regardless of the format, a role is a role. It requires the same amount of hard work. Doing an eight-episode series for OTT required more time, but it is the same."
In a conversation with IANS, when asked about the difficulties she might have faced in migrating from the silver screen to OTT, Kajol 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."
The Trial - Pyaar Kaanoon Dhokha is an adaptation of the CBS show, The Good Wife. In the series, Kajol portrays a lawyer and a housewife who is forced to return to work as a lawyer after her husband's public scandal lands him behind bars. On asked about what scares her more, Love, Law or Betrayal, as the title of the series refers, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge actor 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."
Directed by Suparn Varma, the series stars Sheeba Chaddha, Jisshu Sengupta, Alyy Khan, Kubbra Sait and Gaurav Pandey in key roles.
The series will stream from July 14
