Kajol says her character Noyonika from The Trial' is 'every woman's core

During a media interview, Kajol who plays a lawyer in her upcoming web drama series Trail- Pyaar, Kannoon, Dhokha spoke about her character of Noyonika Sengupta and described her as essentially a woman’s core.

"Noyonika's character is an ambitious woman who is doing whatever she can to save her future and her children's future and that, I think, is pretty much most women everywhere," Kajol said.

"Most powerful, strong women and housewives at the end of the day and who supposedly don't have a job but actually do the most unpaid job in the world. So yeah, that's who she is. That is her core and that is I think most women's core," she added.

Caught in a web of choices, The Trial - Pyaar, Kaanoon, Dhokha follows Noyonika as she embarks on a journey that forces her to navigate the curveballs life has thrown at her.
