Lead actor Pankaj Tripathi recently sat down with Telegraph India to talk all things Criminal Justice.

In the interview, the fan favourite actor would share how “there is still comfort” in playing the same role for a third time.

“I think fatigue starts setting in from the fourth or fifth season. The good thing about this season is that apart me from and the character of my wife (Ratna, played by Khushboo Atre), the other players are new, the situations and incidents are new and the case in question is also new. In this season, we are talking about juvenile justice. That was interesting for me. I know the character very well and recreating Madhav Mishra has been easy for me.” – Pankaj Tripathi, via Telegraph India.

Shweta Basu Prasad would then add how the script for Criminal Justice season 3 was the real kicker when filming the show.

“It’s a very well-written script. The third season is an original, it’s not an adaptation. I found the case very interesting and the script was watertight, I read it in one go. I read the script 150 times before I went on set! I love my character… I had never played a lawyer before this. She’s a public prosecutor and that gave me a lot of scope to perform. And I was pitted against Pankaj Tripathi, so… win-win! Great working opportunity!” – Shweta Basu Prasad, via Telegraph India.

Pankaj would then reveal that he has learned a lot from portraying the main character in this series, noting how “An actor is privileged because along with our own life, we have the opportunity to experience the lives of all the characters that we play.

“When you experience the pain of a character, as a person, your ability to understand pain increases. Madhav Mishra has added a certain sensibility within me. He treats women with a lot of respect, no matter which part of society she comes from. I have learnt that from him.” – Pankaj Tripathi, via Telegraph India.
