What BollyAI Thinks
Season 1 remains the high-water mark of Indian streaming crime drama. Richie Mehta's seven-episode account of the 2012 Delhi gang rape aftermath focuses not on the crime itself but on the police investigation under DCP Vartika Chaturvedi, played by Shefali Shah in a performance that became a reference point. Critics praised the restraint, the procedural precision, and the decision to humanise officers doing grinding institutional work under pressure. The International Emmy for Best Drama Series in 2020 confirmed its standing globally. The show is not without critics who raised questions about perspective and whose story is centred, but the craft consensus was near-unanimous.
