Applause Entertainment has officially announced the release date for Criminal Justice: A Family Matter, the highly anticipated fourth season of the acclaimed Indian legal drama series. Set to premiere on JioHotstar on May 29, 2025, the new chapter once again features the ever-reliable Pankaj Tripathi as lawyer Madhav Mishra, returning to navigate another labyrinthine case steeped in legal tension and emotional complexity. The teaser hints at a gripping story with the line, "Iss baar sach ke do nahi, teen pehlu hain", signaling a narrative built on multiple perspectives and blurred moral lines.
The Criminal Justice franchise has built a loyal following by mixing compelling courtroom drama with deeply personal stories, often drawn from pressing societal issues. Past seasons tackled themes like juvenile crime, sexual assault, and the drug underworld. Season 4 looks set to uphold this tradition, delving into a case that appears to pit family against family, with legal, emotional, and ethical dimensions intersecting in unpredictable ways. The teaser paints a tense picture, promising viewers another high-stakes legal battle layered with secrets and dilemmas.
Joining Tripathi in this season are Surveen Chawla and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, both seasoned performers whose inclusion adds depth and dynamism to the ensemble. Produced by Applause Entertainment in collaboration with BBC Studios India, the series continues its legacy of high production values, sharp writing, and socially resonant storytelling. With the court as a battleground and families as both victims and perpetrators, A Family Matter is expected to challenge audiences with its layered portrayal of truth and justice.
As the premiere date nears, anticipation is building for what many fans hope will be the most compelling season yet. Pankaj Tripathi’s Madhav Mishra has become one of Indian streaming’s most beloved characters, known for his quiet brilliance and moral ambiguity. With Criminal Justice: A Family Matter, the series aims to once again provoke thought, spark conversation, and deliver gripping entertainment rooted in realism.
