Our take

A Netflix Hindi legal thriller about celebrated lawyer Arjun Mehra, forced to defend a murder suspect to save his sick daughter. Rated M. Courtroom twists, stabbings, bloody wounds, domestic-violence references, strong language and smoking, plus themes of cancer, blackmail and compromised justice. Suits about M and up.

Uplifting themes

Integrity, family loyalty and accountability stay in debate even as the hero bends the rules Arjun fights for his daughter even as colleagues question whether justice is being served

Story (may spoil tone)

With a loved one's life at stake, a celebrated lawyer must defend a man he suspects is guilty — battling his conscience every step of the way.
