All language subtitles for The Trial S01 E07

Why are you punishing Dad?

This is how divorce starts, right?

We've received a legal notice from
Juhi Bhatia. The hearing is next week.

-Who is the lawyer?
-Noyonika Sengupta.

In this company, there are two
more names besides Kishore.

One is yours, the other is mine.

I wish I hadn't met Rajiv.

We'll get our revenge later, Ilyas.

First I need to sort out my family life.

Three months before
to taking the policy,

Mr. Matthew was smoking cigarettes
with his friends in the mountains.

That's a breach of contract.

Who is he?

What is he doing here?

-I can't do this.
-What?

I don't get emotionally attached.

If you will give me another chance,
I'll never break your trust.

I can't trust you.

Your clients are very happy
with this outcome.

I hope you'll inform
the board chairman.

Either testify or go to jail.

-Breakfast is served.
-Thank you.

-Anaira, hurry up. Come on, fast.
-Yeah.

Ananya, if you don't score full
marks in today's assignment,

then your mother
will file a case against the school.

I'm a lawyer, not a goon.

It's just a joke, Mom.

We woke up at 4:00 a.m.
and completed the assignment.

-Yes.
-I'm so sorry, baby.

-I would have helped you, but--
-It's okay, I've taken care of it.

Mom, please drop us to the school.

Hey, I have booked a cab.

I will drop them, don't worry.

-Okay, bye.
-When you are wrong,

it becomes easier
to forgive the mistakes of others.

But rebuilding trust with someone

who caused
your displacement is challenging.

How is she?

Critical, but stable.

I wanted to talk to you
about the case.

What is it?

No one other than Juhi
can fight this case.

-Considering her condition--
-She will be fine.

My daughter is a fighter.
She won't give up.

But if her condition worsens,

then this case will not proceed.

What are you trying to say?

Daksh's company wants
an out-of-court settlement.

I want justice, not money.

But the hearing is in two weeks.

And if Juhi doesn't regain
consciousness by then...

Daksh's company wants you
to meet them today, just once.

I don't even want to see his face.

If a settlement is done,

then the world will understand
that Daksh was wrong.

But if Juhi's health deteriorates,

then this case won't proceed
and justice won't be served.

This is the prosecution's
trump card.

N.M. Joshi's accountant, Rupesh.

He is going to testify that Rajiv

was constantly
on N.M. Joshi's payroll.

And to prove this,
he also has all the ledgers.

All the transactions are in cash.

They won't be able to prove
Rajiv's involvement.

But we cannot guarantee this.

It will depend
on the judge's decision.

The dates on the ledger
are from the time

when I was a practising lawyer.

This was many years
before the ruling was made

in the Joshi land dispute case.

It's still a massive
conflict of interest.

This ledger clearly proves

that you took Rs. 10 lakh
from Joshi as black money.

And he can easily prove this.

Not only you had a working
relationship with him

but you were also hiding it.

You could have recused
yourself from the case

if you wanted to,
but you didn't do so.

And the prosecution
can use this against you.

Joshi made a profit of crores
of rupees from your ruling.

Rupesh is also going to testify

that they used to make
all of Tina's payments.

Including the night

when the video was recorded.

And that video was recorded
after the Joshi case.

Shit!

And...

The prosecution has a new twist.
It's a rumour.

Who is it now?

What happened?

You have been removed
from Daksh Rathod's case.

And he has been appointed
to handle this case.

I swear I had nothing
to do with this.

What's your problem with me?

Good morning.

Why was I removed
from Daksh Rathod's case?

It was Vishal's decision, not mine.

So this question needs
to be asked in that cabin.

And last I checked

he and I were boss,
and you, a junior.

I'm sorry.

You are a good lawyer.

In the beginning, I had doubts,
but you came through.

So don't behave like this and
screw it up for yourself, will you?

Are you punishing me
for not having an affair with you?

What the hell are you talking about?

Why was I removed
from Daksh's case?

-Have a seat.
-I'm good.

Look, you are a very good lawyer,
but--

I need an answer, not a compliment.

I thought you needed a break,
Noyonika.

This is the problem with men.

They take revenge if rejected.

I can't believe you just said that.

Actually, I wanted you

to spend some time
with your family, with Rajiv.

I don't want to.
I want to work.

And please don't think
about my well-being.

Stop acting like those men who
want to do everything for a woman.

Just ask me what I want.

What do you want, Noyonika?

I want my case back.

I have made a promise
to Juhi's parents.

And I will not break that promise.

But lawyers
shouldn't be making promises.

I'm a human too.

-Yes, Rajiv.
-Hello, Noyonika.

Where are my tax-return files?

They are in the second drawer
of my bedside table.

Thank you so much.

I'm still figuring out the house.
How is your day going?

The usual, but I handled it.

Are you okay?

I'm bored with this case.

I feel like firing everyone
and fighting my case myself.

That's not possible.

I know that.

Noyonika, shall we
do dinner tonight?

Actually, this week I am quite busy.

Sure. Fine. Bye.

Our network and Mr. Rathod
want to close this case

as soon as possible.

What happened?
Did the sponsors back out?

Our offer is Rs. 1 crore.

That isn't enough
even for medical treatment.

Because of Daksh,
Juhi has attempted suicide.

So, for mental abuse,
public defamation,

abetment of suicide,
and loss of livelihood,

we need a public apology from Daksh
on his prime-time TV show

along with a settlement
of Rs. 5 crore.

Daksh won't apologise.

Without a letter of apology,
this settlement will not happen.

Rs. 5 crore is possible,
but only if you all are flexible.

-Done.
-Good.

Oh, so this is where the meeting
is happening.

Good, very good.

Daksh sir?

I have heard that my money
is being misused.

I have come to witness the spectacle
of my hard-earned money.

So...

At what price
will things be set right?

Sir, they don't need an apology.

Oh!

But the settlement amount
is Rs. 5 crore.

I won't pay.

Sorry?

You won't get the rest
of your fee either. You're fired.

-What are you saying, sir?
-You heard me.

My new lawyer advised me not to ruin
my legacy by getting involved

in some family's emotional
drama and deceive my audience.

Maybe you know him.
He is an amazing person.

Mr. Kishore Ahuja.

Dasgupta, get me a coffee.
Black, sugar on the side.

Please take it yourself.

You must be familiar
with the office, right?

Forget it.

The coffee in this office
is terrible anyway.

Daksh Rathod will now be
represented by Ahuja and Associates.

And our stand is very clear:
there will be no settlement.

No apologies, no compensation.

We'll meet in court.
Let's go, Mr. Rathod.

How much lower will you stoop,
Kishore?

To the extent that I will make sure
you fall too.

So, earlier...

Earlier, he would solve
environmental issues for the rich.

And now he is out for revenge
with our entire firm.

This is bloody ridiculous.

And this case
will give his new firm

quite a good amount
of free publicity, right?

-Right?
-Right.

Yeah, but unfortunately all we have
are probabilities, not proof.

"Not proof."

But we have come this far,
and we should not back out now.

We won't back out.

Okay, so I want to tell you
something.

I really hate people

who get work through
recommendations and backdoor entries.

But you really proved yourself
beyond my expectations.

I will support you
one hundred percent in this case.

My door is open anytime... for you.

Thank you.

Senior advocate Kishore Ahuja
for the defendant, My Lady.

Mrs. Sengupta, you are fighting
against your former boss.

Is there a hidden war
that is affecting this case?

-No, My Lady.
-All right.

-Mrs. Sengupta, call your witness.
-Yes, My Lady.

We would like to call the defendant,

Mr. Daksh Rathod,
to the witness stand.

Mr. Daksh Rathod,
you are one of the most viewed

TV newscasters in India, right?

Wrong.

I am India's top-notch
news reporter, ma'am.

It means that a lot of people
watch your show every day.

One hundred
and thirty-five crore people.

And many of them must have complete
faith in what you say, right?

Absolutely. Thank you.

You covered Mohit Singh's case
in quite a detail, right?

I discuss topics that generate
interest among my audience, ma'am.

And that case
was significant for them.

So, you informed people

that Juhi was the reason
behind Mohit's suicide.

But didn't the court
prove her innocent?

-Of course.
-Didn't you apologise?

For what?

For confidently lying
to 135 crore people

on your prime-time show.

I didn't lie.

I had only expressed
my opinion to them.

Which I have now changed.

Anyway, freedom of press

is a fundamental right
in this country, ma'am.

But freedom of press
in this country

is subject to certain
restrictions also.

Do you remember
calling Juhi a killer

after the verdict
of the case?

Yes, I remember it very well.

"This is the face of deception,
of betrayal."

"This is the girl who--"

Mr. Rathod, please,
this is a court of law

not your studio.

We don't need you to act.

Juhi tried to kill herself,
but you still didn't stop.

Suicide is sometimes a guilt,
ma'am.

But do you have evidence
to call someone a murderer?

I am not a judge. I merely present
my opinion in front of people.

Which you sell like it's the truth?

I have police records.
I have ground reports.

I have many other sources.

@MohitJustice, right?

But those could be trolls as well.

On your prime-time TV show,
the handles you sometimes post

have only two or three followers.

My show is not a court, madam.

It's news.

And I can quote whoever I want.

If there was any credibility

to the things you say, wouldn't
the prosecutor utilise them himself?

Objection, My Lady!

Speculation, My Lady.

Sustained.

By the way,
you are a journalist, right?

Yes.

What does a journalist do?

They deliver news to the audience.

My Lady, I would just like to point
out that in today's interrogation

there was no discussion
on news at all.

The discussion has solely been
on Daksh Rathod's opinion.

One final question, Mr. Rathod.

Juhi's suicide attempt
was a result of your news, right?

Objection, My Lady!

She is leading the witness.

No further questions, My Lady.

Mr. Rathod,
you respect law and order.

You don't believe now that Juhi is
the cause of Mohit's death, do you?

No.

It means that you reverse your
decision with complete humility?

Without any ego?

I am a public servant.
I can't have any ego.

You mentioned a few things
about my colleague...

Mrs. Sengupta,
on your show.

Yes, I had spoken
the truth about her.

I told people
about her adulterous husband.

Do you think
Mrs. Sengupta is using this case

as a way to seek revenge
for her personal problems?

Objection, My Lady!

Maybe. Why not?

That's it.

One more question, Mr. Rathod.

You recently changed your opinion
about this case, right?

Yes.

Because recently, it was reported
that your three major sponsors

have backed out
after Juhi's suicide attempt?

I have no idea.

This freedom of the press seems
to be very flexible, Mr. Rathod.

Careful. Mrs. Sengupta.

No further questions, My Lady.

Bloody Ahuja.

You are being dragged
into this case.

He is seeking his revenge on
Vishal and Malini through me.

Well... I wanted to talk to you
about Rajiv's case.

What is it?

Forget it,
we will talk about it later.

Listen.

You are a very nice person.

Please don't change.

Rohini.

I have something to say to you,
with all my heart.

If I talk about accounts,

you are the biggest asset
of this company.

What do you want, Dheeraj?

I need your help, a favour.

I need some information.

For what?

So that I can stay here forever
and praise you.

What do you want?

Nothing much, just Noyonika's
and my billable hours. That's it.

And this is for you.

In Breaking the News with Daksh,

I've brought
some heart-breaking news

about our very own
good wife, Noyonika Sengupta.

Khanna Chaubey and Associates
have a personal problem with me

and want to get back at me.

That is because some time ago,
I aired an episode

on the bad husband of their
new junior, the Good Wife.

The two minutes of fame
have messed with their minds.

Look at this wife, who is going
to spend a night at a deserted hotel

in Mumbai with her ex-boyfriend,
who is now her current boss.

This is an exclusive footage.

We are not saying this.
We are just showing you the footage.

The public will decide the verdict.
We are just bringing the news.

We'll be back after a short break

-with some more headlines.
-What the fuck is this?

We went to investigate a case.

At night?

Are you asking me this question?

Why?

I made one mistake.
Can't I even ask you anything now?

No. You can't.

Guys, please stop it.

That's exactly
what this wretched person wants.

You can't let him win.
Rajiv. Noyonika.

Mom, your photos...

This is all rubbish.
Mom had gone there for work. Please.

I can answer them.

A reporter is after us, and...

I'm sorry that you have to see these
photos, but it's all bullshit, okay?

-So we are back...
-Guys.

-...with some more information.
-Watch this.

From our trusted sources,
we have learned

that there is so much tension
in the marriage of the couple

that sir sleeps on the sofa
in the living room.

How are they getting
this information?

Ananya, Anaira!

Ananya...

Anaira, these are the people
who want to break our family apart.

We are braver
than our difficulties, right?

We have to take care of each other.

Are we fighting,
or are we family?

-Family.
-Family.

Family, right?

Ilyas, please find out
who is behind all this.

My pleasure.

Proceed, Mrs. Sengupta.

So, Mr. Saksham Gupta, you're
a big fan of Mr. Daksh Rathod.

Ma'am, I am a big fan of sir
and will remain so.

And are you managing
the handle @MohitJustice?

Yes, ma'am, thank you.

So, is this post yours?

Yes.

And you posted
a screenshot as well

in which you claimed that these were
messages between Juhi and Mohit.

Did you make this screenshot?

No, ma'am, I found that screenshot
on the internet.

But your post mentions,
and I quote...

"This screenshot proves
that Juhi terrorised Mohit."

So, did no one
from the channel contact you

to verify if this photo was real
or fake? Was no action taken?

No.

Then, there was a court case
and Juhi was proven not guilty.

Yes, ma'am,
then I made another post.

That Juhi doesn't seem guilty.

Did Daksh not publish
that post on his channel?

How did you feel
when your post was being

broadcast on TV channels
across the country?

Ma'am, I told all my friends
that I was going to be on TV.

I told everyone,
and we all watched it together.

-Did you eat popcorn?
-Objection, My Lady!

Keep the questioning clean,
Mrs. Sengupta.

No further questions,
My Lady.

We'll resume after lunch.

How is the case going?

My witness testimony was good.

But this guy, he is not very smart.

I worry about what Kishore will do to him.

object to every question of his.

Okay. Why?

Just do it.

You took advantage
of a news channel to become famous

and earned a reputation
through their work.

Objection, My Lady.
Relevance.

It's just a simple question,
My Lady.

Objection overruled.
Please answer.

Can you please repeat your question?

Question... Yes, the question was...

You took advantage
of a news channel to become famous.

No.

The day your post was featured,
you made another post.

"Proud to solve Mohit's case."

Objection, My Lady.
Relevance.

It's relevant.

Overruled.

It's a relevant question.

You continued to tell lies
to conceal one lie.

Objection, My Lady.
Leading the witness.

Stop

objecting to everything!

Watch it, Mrs. Sengupta.

Why did you post that?

My wish.

My phone, my internet,
I made the post.

No, you wanted free fame,
so you did this.

Objection, My Lady.
Leading the witness.

Stop!

Watch it, Mrs. Sengupta.

Why did you post that?

You're unemployed, so you thought
that by taking a shortcut

you would become famous
and earn a lot of money.

Objection, My Lady!
Badgering the witness!

Shut up! Enough!

Shut up!

How...
How dare you talk to me like this!

You learnt the law from me!
Will you teach me the law?

You got me out of my firm,
and you dare fight with me!

Stop this bloody nonsense, Malini!

Mr. Ahuja, control yourself.

Yes...

What is happening to you, Mr. Ahuja?

Are you okay, Mr. Ahuja?

Mr. Ahuja!

Sorry, Dasgupta.

Mr. Ahuja?

No more questions, My Lady.

What are you doing?
Get a hold of yourself.

We have no further arguments,
My Lady.

Mr. Ahuja, does the defence
have any final arguments?

The defence rests, My Lady.

All right, the court is dismissed.

Noyonika, is everything going well?

Currently, I can't say anything.

The right to freedom of press
includes a lot of things.

And it's not easy to restrict it.

Let's hope for the best.

So you knew about his dementia?

From the beginning.

But he was my mentor.

I was trying to protect him.

Old-world loyalty.

So what changed?

He changed.

And now he thinks that nobody
can get the better of him.

So was this revenge?

Justice.

Maths, History,
and Geography are pending.

Ananya.

Mr. Ilyas?

Dear, the household matters that are
being telecast on the news...

Are you sure you've not spoken
to anyone about it in school?

No, sir, I don't talk
to anyone about it.

You chat with a boy
from your messenger account.

How did you know that?

After the news leaked,
I investigated

every movement
using my IP address.

Why don't you look for someone?

I already have a girlfriend.

-Really?
-Hi, Ananya.

I trusted you.

W-What are you talking about?

You leaked
my family's personal matter.

Are you crazy?

Ananya, dear, give me two minutes.

Go.

Guys, classes?

It's all fine.

Son, don't be over-smart.

I got your IP address hacked.

If you try to act smart, everyone
will know that you are on the dark web.

And the punishment for that is
five years' imprisonment. Minimum.

Don't call
or talk to her ever again. Okay?

Go, go.

Mom and Dad
will never forgive me for this.

There is no need to tell them.

Just this time.

Don't worry, dear.
Go back to class.

There have been discussions on
the freedom of press for years now.

And if we don't protect
our freedom of press,

then we can't call
ourselves a democracy.

Having said that,

in this particular case,
we have noticed

that Mr. Daksh Rathod,
while misusing his freedom of speech

and the freedom of press,
has ruined someone's life.

And for that,
we hold him accountable.

Mr. Daksh Rathod
not only aired some news item

but also exploited someone's
personal life in the media

and sensationalised a lie.

The court finds Mr. Daksh Rathod
guilty of defamation.

And the court orders him to pay
a penalty of Rs. 2 crore.

And within the next
seven working days,

he will have to apologise to Juhi

on his prime-time show
on national TV.

The court is adjourned.

Thank you.

Well played, Good Wife.

The channel will give them the money,

but obtaining
an apology is unlikely.

I will drag this case through
every court for years. You'll see.

Make sure to show this performance
tonight at 9 o'clock.

Yes, Vishal, we won.

You tried hard.
You got her justice.

She is dead.

She had to pay a price
to obtain justice.

Thank you for everything.

I need to tell you something.

I used to work with Rajiv, right?

The prosecution has called me
to testify in his case.

And what did you say?

I don't have a choice.

And I didn't want to bother you
until this case was over.

What are you going to testify?

I'm sorry.

Congratulations for the case, ma'am.

I'm sorry to hear about Juhi.

Yes, thank you.
Sit.

Actually, the case and cause,
both were very noble.

And Noyonika
also put in all her efforts.

But when everyone gets
busy with pro bono cases,

it falls upon the remaining people
to manage the company, right?

What is it?

It's a detailed breakdown.

The account of every rupee
earned by me

and my working hours in this firm
as compared to Noyonika.

Dheeraj, this is a low blow.

Six months are about to end, ma'am.

I am not playing games with anyone.
I am just playing well.

And I want my work
to speak for itself.

Good night, boss.

Congratulations on your victory.

Really?

I mean, you won the case.

And that's all that matters?

What are you saying, Noyonika?

You matter.

What happened between us in Kochi...

I realised, after that,

things have changed
between us and...

And once again, I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Let bygones be bygones.

We shouldn't repeat it.

The truth is, after meeting you...

I've been

literally haunted by two words.

What if...
What if I had never let you go?

What if you hadn't met Rajiv?

What if we were together?

Life doesn't function
around "what if."

Maybe, in another life,
it'll all work out.

That's what I'm trying to explain,
Noyonika.

You make every difficulty easy.

You are crazy.
Good night.

From here to here.

Yes, Bharat, tell me.

There is bad news.

You're there, right? Everything
will be fine. Just say it.

Actually, I have encountered
a family emergency, so...

What do you mean?

I can't represent you, Rajiv.

You sold yourself out?

I got scared.

I'm sorry.

Bharat is gone.

I don't even have
a bloody lawyer anymore.

Dad, will you go to jail again?

Those who break
the law receive punishment,

while those who break hearts
often get another chance.

We need a lawyer.

We may stop loving someone,

but we never stop
protecting them.

So, breaking news, sex tape.

Rajiv Sengupta.

Mr. Sengupta has shown
great disrespect

towards the judiciary in the public.

I have a habit of getting deceived,
not giving up.

This week the positions
will be finalised.

So, please recommend me.

At this moment, the firm
needs funds, not friends.

No transaction in his ledger
is directly connected to me.

We will drag this case
for five years.

And how would that benefit?

Rajiv will join politics.

Did you handle
the cash payments

being given from N.M. Joshi
to Rajiv Sengupta?
