A Favourable Verdict

Guilty Minds deftly navigates the law of the land and that of human nature

- Jai Arjun Singh

The first episode of this often-gripping legal drama ends with one of the protagonists, the bright young lawyer Deepak Rana (Varun Mitra), doing something inappropriate during friendly banter at a nightclub. At the receiving end is the equally bright Kashaf (Shriya Pilgaonkar). Her response makes it clear that she has been offended, and Deepak's act might seem especially startling since they have just been on opposite ends of a sexual harassment case with him defending the accused and Kashaf representing the accuser. But as so often happens with a multi-episode series, we have much to learn about these characters, their personal relationships, back-stories, and private demons.
