Hotstar Specials, the Indian Originals arm of Disney Plus Hotstar, is getting ready to release the new season of its well received Hindi web series, Criminal Justice. We had earlier informed our readers in January this year that BBC Studios, the original owner of the property, has given the green signal for Criminal Justice Season 2. Now, the series is almost ready for release.
As per reports in the media, shooting for Criminal Justice Season 2 is complete. Now only the dubbing and post-production work remains on the show. The makers Hotstar and Applause Entertainment plan to complete all remaining work by October, and release the show on Disney Plus Hotstar in November, just after IPL 2020 ends.
By releasing Criminal Justice Season 2 immediately after IPL 2020, Disney Plus Hotstar hopes to retain the subscribers it has garnered in prospect of the cricket spectacle.
Criminal Justice Season 2 has several changes in its cast and crew. The returning cast members in Season 2 are Pankaj Tripathi, Mita Vashist, and Anupriya Goenka. Kirti Kulhari will be the new addition to the cast, along with a few as-yet-undisclosed actors. Pankaj Tripathi’s Madhav Mishra will defend Kirti Kulhari’s character, who’s been accused of murdering her husband.
While Criminal Justice Season 1 was helmed by Tigmanshu Dhulia and Vishal Furia, their place is taken by Rohan Sippy and Arjun Mukherjee in the new season.
Disney Plus Hotstar had a clear winner on its hands when Criminal Justice released on the platform in April last year. Packed with powerful actors such as Vikrant Massey, Pankaj Tripathi, Jackie Shroff, Anupriya Goenka and Mita Vashisht, Criminal Justice had been a runaway success for Disney Plus Hotstar. Jackie Shroff and Pankaj Tripathi’s performances, in particular, came in for a lot of praise.
So there, you have it now. Criminal Justice Season 2 will premiere on Disney Plus Hotstar in November, right after IPL 2020 ends.
