The Verdict State Vs Nanavati Trailer
The Verdict State vs Nanavati consists of a stellar cast including Elli Avrram, Manav Kaul, Angad Bedi, Saurabh Shukla, Kubbra Sait, Sumeet Vyas, Soni Razdan, Makarand Deshpande, Swanand Kirkire, Viraf Patel, and Pooja Gor.
The series follows the court case in 1959, where a Naval Commander, Commander Kawas Manekshaw Nanavati, was attempted for the murder of his wife’s lover, Prem Ahuja.
“Naval Commander Nanavati comes back home to know of the involvement of his wife with Prem Ahuja. In a fit of anger, he kills him, which sparks a countrywide debate of honor against revenge killing. Media, society, and politics get separated by opinions. It turns into a case that separated the nation,” claims the summary of the series.
The trailer offers a glance into 1959 Bombay, its myriad colors, nightlife, and everything else. Once the period drama is set, the story approaches to the courtroom where Angad Bedi (the lawyer) addresses the lady in the witness box asking Mrs. Nanavati about her loyalty against her husband. He further asks if she was sleeping with other men and how many times did she sleep with Prem Ahuja. At the end of the sequence of questions, the lady breaks down unable to give an answer instantaneously.
A crime of passion that divided India’s patriarchal society of 1959 & led to its most controversial judicial case.
The 3 gunshots fired by Commander K M Nanavati began a war of moralities, sexes & communities.https://t.co/0nApLNpAuA#TheVerdictStateVsNanavati #ALTBalajiOriginal— ALTBalaji (@altbalaji) June 30, 2019
The role of Sylvia is played by Elli Avrram who emotes with her body language and eyes as without any dialogue, she is capable of expressing nervousness, remorse, and vulnerability. The trailer then shows us the steamy affair between Prem Ahuja (Viraf Patel) and Nanavati’s wife Sylvia and the succeeding murder of the lover. Elli Avrram, the Swedish-Greek beauty, plays the major role in the series and her casting appears to be ideal. Nanavati is played by Manav Kaul while Viraf Patel depicts Prem Ahuja. Angad Bedi and Sumeet Vyas will play lawyers Karl Khandalavala and Ram Jethmalani respectively.
