The Trial (Indian TV series)

Anuj Kumar of The Hindu opined, "The makers have looked beyond the obvious faces that dot the OTT space these days and have brought back some lesser-seen powerhouses."

Pinkvilla gave a mixed review, saying, "The Trial counts for a nice weekend binge despite few clichéd tropes and plot conveniences."

A critic from Rediff.com wrote, "Blame it on my expectations, but we've seen far more absorbing and closer-to-life court room dramas in recent times – the slow burn Criminal Justice, spirited Guilty Minds and, of course, the glitzy Suits being one of my all-time favourites."

Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV gave a mixed review and rated the series 3 stars out of 5, stating, "Not everything in this world is by the book.

Critic Deepa Gahlot reviewed the series for Scroll.in stating, "Kajol is given annoying internal pop-philosophical monologues about love, trust, destiny and faith."

Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express opined, "For the second season, can we expect smoother writing, less choppy situations, and please, none of those sonorous voice-overs which feel like they were written as bumper-sticker lines to the wise?"

Tushar Joshi of India Today wrote, "On the flip side, the score and music sounds outdated and some of the dialogues stand out as a sore thumb in an otherwise modern setting.
