Season 1:
Minus the mouthpiece moments Shefali Shah was phenomenal, she looked scary enough to be authoritative. The whole cast did a good job too, minus some moments e.g. The last scream from Akaash. Liked the fact they depicted the incident through dialogue rather than visually, cause I think it's impossible to film a sexual assault scene without becoming either exploitative or toothless. There were some dark ironies too e.g. The crosscutting between the shot of Aakash and Deepika looking for CNG then Bus and the shot of DCP Varthika convincing her daughter to not leave India cause there's a "good part pf Delhi" in the first episode. But it felt too much a copaganda/propaganda for police and that kind of hurt my enjoyment of it. The cliffhanger at the end of the third episode felt like a cheat as it was of no consequence.
