Sony LIV (OTTplay Premium) has unveiled the official trailer for Court Kacheri, an original series that will premiere on August 13, 2025. The show, which explores legal proceedings, generational tensions, and emotional reflection, offers a fresh perspective on courtroom dramas. It was developed by The Viral Fever (TVF) and directed by Ruchir Arun.
In this trailer, we meet Param, a young man whose father, the veteran advocate Harish Mathur, grudgingly drags him into the legal profession. Param, portrayed by Ashish Verma, faces a moral conundrum as he tries to escape an unwanted legacy while simultaneously trying to live up to a reputation he didn't seek. In this fast-paced, often chaotic small-town district court, cases are more than simply legal disputes; they are often political flashpoints.
With its blend of comedy, pathos, and the nuanced sadness of inheriting responsibilities, Court Kacheri gives the genre a new voice.
Playing the role of Harish Mathur, Pavan Malhotra gives the show seriousness. The part of Harish was more than just a job; it was a mirror, he remarked when asked about his performance. Speaking about the role, the actor said in a statement, "Playing Harish was more than a role; it was a reflection. This show dives into the silent battles between generations, the weight of legacy, and the quiet rebellion of choosing your own path. It’s emotional, real, and deeply relatable."
Courtroom procedural drama, Param's strained relationship with his father, and the daily absurdities of working as a lawyer are all hinted at in the trailer. Although court issues are the show's backbone, the emotional centre is in the characters' struggles to make sense of their complicated pasts in a society that values power over principle.
The show's ensemble cast includes Malhotra and Verma, as well as Puneet Batra, Priyasha Bharadwaj, Bhushan Vikas, Kiran Khoje, Sumali Khaniwale, and Anandeshwar Dwivedi. Each of these actors seems to add something to the show's colourful depiction of law and life in a small-town setting.

Court Kacheri is the latest effort by Sony LIV and TVF, a team well-known for producing engaging stories focused on characters such as Gullak, College Romance, and Cubicles. Launching soon, the show intends to provide a new take on the courtroom drama formula by centring on individual defiance and emotional honesty.
