From a humble middle class Maharashtran family, Justice Gupte was the first person in his family to pursue law, and was groomed by his grandfather from a very young age, not just to become a lawyer, but particularly to become a judge. Chatting with Sr. Adv. Darius Khambata, we explore Justice Gupte’s love for theatre and how there is a little bit of an actor in every lawyer and a bit of a director in every judge. He talks about the challenges he faced as a junior member of the bar, the qualities in a lawyer he looked for as a judge, as well as his views on the judiciary when it comes to fairness, honesty, and of course, justice.

The Bombay High Court has an illustrious history of over 160 years, and has produced some of India’s preeminent jurists. Their contributions to India’s legal landscape have long been documented by others, but rarely does one get an opportunity to peek into their lives and appreciate their insights in their own words.
