Netflix's one of the most popular shows, Delhi Crime, is back with Season 3. Shefali Shah has returned to the show as Madam Sir, who will come face-to-face with Badi Didi (Huma Qureshi) - the vain villain and ruthless mastermind who builds her empire by trafficking young girls.
The new season will see DCP Vartika Chaturvedi and her team investigating a case that begins with an abandoned baby, and soon it exposes a human trafficking ring. The trail leads them to Meena, also known as Badi Didi. The cat-and-mouse race will make the upcoming season an interesting watch.
Tanuj Chopra has returned to direct Delhi Crime Season 3. Along with Shah, Rasika Dugal (as Neeti Singh) and Rajesh Tailang (as Bhupendra Singh) are also returning to the show. Jaya Bhattacharya (as Vimla Baradwaj) and Anuraag Arora (as Jairaj Singh) are also reprising their roles.
Qureshi, Sayani Gupta, Mita Vasisht, Kelly Dorji and Anshumaan Pushkar are the new faces of the thrilling season.

On her return to the show, Shefali Shah said, "Returning as Madam Sir always feels deeply personal. Vartika is fighting an enemy that not only crosses borders, but also exists in the shadow of everyday society. Even if it means saving just one life, she keeps fighting."
Huma called her role "powerful yet unsettling." "She’s shaped by trauma and wields immense control. That duality is what drew me to Delhi Crime. The show doesn’t glorify or sensationalise — it confronts hard truths head-on," she added.
Delhi Crime Season 3 is set to premiere on November 13, 2025.
