‘Delhi Crime’ Season 3 Storyline
The story takes a darker, more complicated turn in Season 3. It begins with the discovery of an abandoned baby, which leads the investigation team into an extensive web of human trafficking that spans beyond Delhi.
The primary character, DCP Vartika Chaturvedi (played by Shefali Shah), is once again in charge of the police unit that has to deal with the crime as well as the systemic factors that led to it, such as fear, profit, silence, and complicity. This season's primary antagonist is the mysterious ‘Badi Didi’ (played by Huma Qureshi), the mastermind behind the trafficking ring.
