Sonakshi Sinha says 'System' reflects the society and its relationship with law

MUMBAI: Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha has said that her upcoming streaming movie 'System' reflects the society that we live in. The trailer of the film was unveiled on Tuesday, and it showcases Sonakshi essaying a lawyer in riveting courtroom set-up.

The gripping courtroom thriller challenges a system where power defines the truth. It is directed by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, and it captures the universal themes of ambition, revenge, fight for justice, and moral ethics.

Sonakshi Sinha, who plays Neha, an ambitious public prosecutor, shared, “Playing this character has been deeply rewarding. I’m always drawn to stories that challenge me as an actor, and Prime Video has given me the opportunity to explore diverse genres and themes, from 'Dahaad' to now 'System'. This original movie is more than just a legal drama; it reflects the society we live in, where justice can sometimes be as divided as the social structures around us. Ashwiny’s clear vision helped me bring out my best and I’m excited to see how audiences respond when 'System' premieres".

The trailer for System opens with Neha, a determined young lawyer played by Sonakshi Sinha, taking on a tough challenge from her father (played by Ashutosh Gowariker) to be worthy of a partnership in his firm. To pull it off, she recruits Sarika (played by Jyotika), a street-smart courtroom stenographer, who secretly harbors motives of her own. What follows is a fast-moving glimpse into intense courtroom battles, messy relationships, and some powerful moments.

Jyotika, who essays the role of Sarika, a courtroom stenographer, said, “Portraying such a layered character in System was both exciting and challenging. The film explores the contrasts of modern India, where privilege and inequality co-exist. Ashwiny brings a clear and engaging vision to the story, from well-developed characters to realistic settings. Being part of a Prime Original movie has been a great experience. Prime Video is known for sharing meaningful stories with audiences across India and globally, and I am certain 'System' will resonate with everyone".
