Jimmy Sheirgill is all set to join the likes of Bollywood stars who are shining in digital space with exciting work coming their way. The actor who was last seen in Bollywood movie Judgementall Hai Kya alongside Kangana Ranaut will be seen in the remake of Israeli series Your Honor, which will be produced by Applause Entertainment.
Dark, gripping and morally complex, Your Honor is set in Ludhiana, Punjab. It tells the story of Bishan Khosla (Jimmy Sheirgill), a respected circuit court judge, known for his uncompromising honesty, and on the cusp of a big promotion. After his troubled teenaged son Abeer Khosla (Pulkit Makol) is involved in a hit-and-run accident, Bishan is about to turn Abeer in to the police, when he learns who the accident victim is. What happens next is a disturbing downward spiral of events, as Bishan, in his attempt to protect his son, uncharacteristically obstructs justice to cover up the truth.
The series is directed by National Award-winning Director E Niwas, who has made films like Shool, Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega and My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves.
TV producer Sunjoy Waddhwa also marks his digital debut with this project. The series has been beautifully adapted for India by writer Ishan Trivedi, and features Jimmy Sheirgill, Mita Vashisht, Varun Badola, Yashpal Sharma, Parul Gulati, Suhasini Mulay, Richa Pallod, Kunj Anand, Pulkit Makol and Mahabir Bhullar as central characters.
Speaking about his role, Jimmy Sheirgill says, “My role in Your Honor takes a chance with his own reality, the substance of the story is what convinced me to take up the part. The length an individual can go, burning all the bridges and principles for the ones he loves, is truly compelling.”
Director, E Niwas says, “I am excited to mark my digital journey with Your Honor, a show packed with intense emotions and depth of characters. I am glad to have worked with creative minds like Sameer, Deepak and Sunjoy to re-create this adaptation. The digital space is proving to be an ideal medium that allows creators like us to explore different genres and narrative styles. I am very excited to present Your Honor to our audiences.
Your Honor will be streaming soon on a leading OTT platform.
Apart from Your Honor, Jimmy Sheirgill will also be seen in Zee5 series Rangbaaz 2.
