With
a
refreshed
brand
new
identity,
SonyLIV
is
all
set
to
bring
forth
an
array
of
original
content
ranging
from
thrilling
fictional
narratives
to
real-life
incidents
and
many
more.
Challenging
the
predominant
beliefs
of
morality
and
ethics,
SonyLIV's
very
first
original
content
titled
Your
Honor,
a
dark
and
morally
complex
thriller,
is
all
set
to
go
live
on
June
18.
Your
Honor
is
adapted
from
the
Israeli
series
Kvodo,
distributed
by
Yes
Studios,
produced
for
Applause
Entertainment
by
Sphereorigins
and
directed
by
National-award
winning
director,
E
Niwas.
Life
was
good
for
an
upright,
honest
and
reputed
judge
Bishan
Khosla
until
he
finds
himself
in
a
life
altering
situation.
His
only
son
gets
involved
in
a
hit-and-run
case.
While
Bishan
is
about
to
turn
in
his
son
to
the
police,
he
learns
about
the
victim's
identity.
Will
judge
Khosla,
the
man
of
honor,
choose
to
put
everything
at
stake
to
overrule
the
system?
Oscillating
between
the
complexities
of
morality
and
ethics,
Jimmy
Sheirgill
brings
to
life
the
agony
of
Bishan
Khosla
in
this
thriller.
Joining
Jimmy
Sheirgill
in
this
enticing
new
offering,
are
renowned
actors
like
Mita
Vashisht,

Offering
a
power-packed
monsoon
binge,
SonyLIV
also
releases
Manoj
Bajpayee's
critically
acclaimed
film
Bhonsle
along
with
a
dark
comedy
Kadakh,
starring
Ranvir
Shorey.
The
english
shows
For
Life
and
Lincoln
Rhyme:
Hunt
for
the
Bone
Collector
also
make
their
Indian
debut
on
the
platform.
While
the
former
is
inspired
from
a
true
story,
the
latter
is
a
thriller
adapted
from
the
book
'The
Bone
Collector'
by
Jeffery
Deaver.
Talking
about
the
show,
Jimmy
Sheirgill,
said,
"As
an
actor,
I
don't
think
I
want
to
restrict
myself
in
exploring
different
avenues.
The
script
becomes
an
important
aspect
for
me
while
choosing
the
project
that
I
am
getting
involved
with.
Your
Honor
is
one
such
project
that
I
am
proud
of.
For
the
first
time
I
will
be
seen
essaying
the
character
of
a
judge.
The
profession
itself
has
not
got
its
due
in
mainstream
cinema
and
it
was
an
interesting
role
for
me
to
pursue.
The
intense
narrative
of
the
show
is
not
just
gripping
but
also
brings
out
the
emotional
complexities
of
the
characters
beautifully."
Elaborating
on
the
subject
of
the
show,
Ashish

Business,
Sony

India
said,
"SonyLIV
Originals
are
Indian
stories
created
for
a
global
market.
The
storytelling
therefore
will
have
a
signature
Indian
ethos
and
authenticity.
Your
honor
is
the
first
such
show
and
will
be
followed
by
an
interesting
line
up
of
Indian
stories
coming
soon.
We
