Maamla Legal Hai

I have not felt frustrated at the end of a small 8-part miniseries in a long time. I craved many more episodes of this gripping, fulfilling, and hilariously funny legal drama.

Lawyers are considered bottom feeders until they achieve a certain prestige level, at which point all their judicial and legal sins are forgiven. Classism is alive and well in the legal profession too, and this show brilliantly illustrates that. The cases shown here are real and tangible, thorny turns of the road that have remained unresolved for decades. The episodes highlight real human drama and tragedy and the cost of justice denied through delay.

The characters are incredible. Ravi Kishan is the massive planet Jupiter around which the entire show revolves, and he executes this role with gravitas and finesse. This is a lawyer on the cusp of greatness, and he must choose his road. Naila Grewal represents the selfless, idealistic newcomer who still believes in the legal system and is unwilling to bend the rules in a broken system. Nidhi Bisht is the firecracker in the barn, the shameless, fearless lady lawyer who will go to any length to build her unrecognized career. Each knocks it out of the courtroom.

There must be an adjournment to the second season.

Why don't lawyers go to the beach?

Because even the sand can't escape their scrutiny - it's always under "appeal"!

Courts serve as a forum to address various social injustices prevailing in the world. They are often viewed as a social gutter, where even minor disputes can take years to resolve.

"Maamla Legal Hai," despite the tense and tiring atmosphere commonly associated with legal proceedings, presents a captivating and humor-filled courtroom drama on Netflix. I assure you that it will not only make you laugh but also provide enjoyment from the beginning to the very end.

Episode 3, in particular, stands out as the funniest.

From Ravi Kishan to Naila Grewal to Nidhi Bisht, each actor has portrayed their roles beautifully.

Don't hesitate; just click, watch, and enjoy.

I don't know why this kind of content is still so rare in India when it is demanded the most. A light hearted comedy drama that introduces us to ground reality of a profession or a setup just like Panchayat...yes 'PANCHAYAT', it gave me the same vibe. The characters are interestingly written stuck in believable situations and played by some of the very fine Actors across in industry, special mention to Ravi Kishan who is flawless in black coat. The direction is good, dialogues are witty and stories are based on some of the real life incidents as claimed in the series. I Hope to see a Second season of this with Ravi Kishan in it and would like to urge Netflix to focus more on this type of content.

Edit : So happy that it got renewed for a second season, wish the cast and the whole team a heartful Congratulations!!

Maamla legal hai is a drama series directed by rahul pandey.

The series starts very meekishly for me. The jokes were seemingly lame, the intention was always there but something was really missing. It became evident as the series progressed and the series just caught its right pace. The emotions were missing, you cannot go comedy comedy comedy all the way, it will get stale after a point of time.

Ravi kishan is the star of this show. Starting off as a cocky, high ground lawyer, his character transitions to be a very likeable one, mainly due to his antics and the shades brought into his character. His equation with his father, though in brief sequences, was effective. Naila grewal impressed me a lot. She had to play a character who had to learn that there is always a distance between law and justice. I think she carried off that smug attitude really well. Nidhi bisht is funny. Her character started off well, but somewhere in between, her motives were not given importance. The writers had to develop her character more. The other characters are decent.

I think the series was confused whether it wants to be a comedy or a satire, because the writing has to be different for both. The series learnt that thing from the 4th or 5th episode onwards. The slight pokings at the lawyers' and judges' plight in this country helps the series. The series portrays different abrupt cases which were weird and wacky. The homour in those places seemed off, I mean the level of humour being generated with those cases was off point. Another gripe has to be the use of background score. It was almost present in all emotional scenes. The makers had little confidence on their audience and their writing, to be honest.

There are some humorous one-liners which are worth remembering. The short sitcom approach helps the series from being dragged on. A solid 7.5/10.

"Unveiling a tapestry of human emotions, the Netflix series is a riveting mix of legal drama and heartfelt storytelling. Led by Tyagi's compelling performance, complemented by the standout portrayal of Mantu and Miss Negi, the cast delivers superb acting that resonates with authenticity. Rahul Pandey's direction is masterful, weaving each episode with emotional depth and resonance. From laughter to tears, every episode engages viewers on a profound level, inviting them to connect with the characters' journeys. As the series culminates, it leaves a lingering thought on overcoming inhibitions and embracing new challenges. Undoubtedly, this is one of the finest legal dramas to grace the screen."
