The movie stars Sonakshi Sinha, Jyotika, and Ashutosh Gowariker in prominent roles. The official statement from the makers says, “System captures the univeraal themes of ambition, revenge, fight for justice and moral ethics. The movie challenges a system where power defines the truth.”

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

Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, the director and co-writer of System said, “I believe there are innumerable stories that surround us but bringing them to life on screen authentically and creatively, is tough. I love to challenge myself and that’s why System came into existence.”

Sonakshi Sinha, who plays Neha, an ambitious public prosecutor, said, “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.”

Jyotika, who plays 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 rivilege and inequality coexist.”
