Mumbai : The much-awaited finale of Criminal Justice: A Family Matter Season 4 is now streaming on JioHotstar, and it has set social media buzzing. Produced by Applause Entertainment in association with BBC Studios India and directed by Rohan Sippy, the latest season has drawn widespread acclaim for its emotionally layered storytelling, standout performances, and a riveting climax that has left viewers speechless.
Returning as the inimitable Madhav Mishra, Pankaj Tripathi once again proves why he is among India’s most bankable actors. His nuanced portrayal of the sharp yet empathetic defence lawyer forms the emotional and legal backbone of the show. Alongside Tripathi, stellar performances by Surveen Chawla, Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Shweta Basu Prasad, and Asha Negi have added emotional weight and complexity to the courtroom drama.
This season takes a deep dive into a high-stakes murder case entangled within a family, exploring themes of sacrifice, mental health, and justice with remarkable sensitivity. The writing and screenplay have struck a chord, with many calling it the best season since the original.
Fans on social media have been pouring in reactions:
“What an unexpected ending of #CriminalJusticeSeason4! Hats off to the story and screenplay writers,” wrote one user.
“The best one since Season 1! Beautifully crafted climax. Brilliant direction that justifies every perspective,” shared another fan.

“Mind-blowing finale. Pankaj Tripathi hits it out of the park,” another post raved.
A particularly emotional fan summed it up, writing: “It was not just about Madhav Mishra but about a selfless mother, a misled but committed father, and a teenager shedding light on mental health. Madhav Mishra won the case, but lost to a mother.”
The finale’s emotionally charged courtroom scenes, unexpected revelations, and character arcs have not only lived up to expectations but also elevated the show’s stature in India’s digital entertainment space.
With fans already clamouring for a fifth season, Criminal Justice: A Family Matter proves once again that compelling courtroom dramas can also be deeply human stories. The series is currently streaming exclusively on JioHotstar.
