The 2012 Delhi gang-rape incident, that took place on the 16th of December 2012 and shook the country to its core, is an issue that fundamentally contributed to the ongoing discourse about women’s issues in India. Frankly, they cannot be summarised by mere news articles or a handful of interviews. However, a new perceptive television series called Delhi Crime is changing the game. The name itself foreshadows an objective stance, which creates an atmosphere of anticipation. From its authentic cinematography, a very dynamic arena of subplots, painstaking attention to details to the stellar performances from the whole cast, Delhi Crime is a highly immersive and emotional experience for the audience.
Moreover, the series tries to showcase a completely fresh perspective, focusing on the investigation instead of the heinous crime. This creates a gripping thriller that unfolds in a quick span of time. It weaves the personal conflicts of the protagonists with the tangles of the case to reveal the national and departmental politics behind the scenes. It follows an extremely real set-up, helping Delhi Crime portray the varied reactions of different stakeholders, making it an emotionally powerful and stirring narrative.
