Trivia
According to actress Geetanjali Kulkarni, each scene took 30-40 takes to get right.
'Court' was filmed in 45 days, whereas the casting process took 6 months.
Some cast members were untrained, non-professional actors. In the case of the woman who plays the deceased's widow, it's eerie how unaffected the scene is before you realize that it's reality. (The woman is widowed in real life. Her husband was a manhole worker.)
