Disney Plus Hotstar on Friday finally announced the much-awaited fourth chapter of the crime drama series Criminal Justice, starring Pankaj Tripathi in the lead role. The new instalment will mark the return of actor Pankaj Tripathi as the uncanny lawyer, Madhav Mishra. In a statement, the actor said the new chapter will delve further into the life of Mishra and his ability to front complex cases with such ease and permanence.
"In the hall of fame of on-screen lawyers, I feel that Madhav Mishra has earned his place with Criminal Justice. I could not believe how much Madhav's character in the series resembled me. Every victory felt like my own and every defeat felt like a personal loss. I’m excited to announce the new season on Disney+ Hotstar and I hope the audiences continue to shower love on this season like they have done previously," PTI reported quoting Pankaj Tripathi.
