Delhi Crime (2019)

Delhi crime is hands down, one of the best criminal series I have seen till date. Based on the gruesome crime, Nirbhaya case’ which shook the whole nation, the rawness that the makers captured in the show made it so hard to take a break from it. The extreme reality behind the whole storyline makes it extremely exhausting for the mind but the brilliance of direction and action captures the attention of the viewers. Some scenes were a real eye-opener while some made my blood boil whereas some scenes sent a cold shiver down my spine. But on a short note, for all the readers, go for it. This sow is utter brilliance.

Delhi crime is the new Netflix series based on the real life mortifying case of Nirbhaya that happened on 16th December, 2012. While this case gathered attention worldwide and shook the ground beneath the feet of common people. Delhi crime unlike other series shows the behind the scenes work and operations done by the Delhi police, the strategy of the Delhi police to catch the inhumane villains of this crime. We've read and seen in the news that the culprits were captured with a span of 5-6 days after the misdeed. The gory details and the work scheme that were put into capturing them did not reach the public's eye. And people are still unaware of it. Delhi crime unveils the details that happened behind the public eye. The actors portraying the real life victims have done spectacular work.
I'm straining myself from writing any spoilers and details about the series, because o believe everyone needs to see this. It's a seven part thriller series which deserves all the attention.

Delhi Crime is an outstanding portrayal of the Delhi Nirbhaya rape case, that took place in the year 2012. This is based on that heinous event that happened in the country we have been living in, for years and this brought together all the other states, to demand justice from the government system.
Special mention should definitely be given to Shefali Shah who had wonderfully played the role of DCP Vartika Chaturvedi. The rest of the cast, namely Rasika Dugal, Adil Hussain, Yashaswini Dayama have also played a major role in this web-series. The protest against this shameful crime, the investigations that took place, into finding the men who had done such a crime and what goes into bringing justice to a rape victim in this country, fighting and protesting against all the odd powers that supports it or doesn't want it to receive justice is all what this web-series is about.
This is definitely recommendable and a must watch for all. You can watch all the seven episodes of this series on Netflix.

Firstly, it has done really good job at showing the situation of women's safety in India. At one side we see a helpless woman being raped by brutes, and then we have lead investigators being women. It was such a contrast. Although, a male chief minister is shown in the movie but Ms. Shiela Dixit, a woman was CM at the time.
All the lead actors are already established character artists who excel in their roles and proved yet again their acting prowess. Shefali Shah was outstanding in the role of DCP. She brought the struggle in the system that an honest police officer goes through to get the job done. Rasika Duggal has continued on her performance from Mirzapur with ease.

Delhi crime sets out aiming very high, like it tries to tell a story of a heinous crime with objectivity, create a gripping thriller that unfolds in a quick span of time, weave the personal conflicts of the protagonists. This series is such a well made and brilliantly executed series. When I first heard about it, I thought that it is just an attempt to sensationalize the most famous and gruesome crime in recent history, but to my pleasant surprise, the series is quite restrained and made with a lot of sensitivity. All the actors are in a topmost form, and they deliver superb performances. The series is really gripping and holds the attention till the last episode. This is one of the best portrays of policing in India that I have seen on a television screen, and I really have a newfound respect for our cops after watching this series. #country #cops #emotional #love
