While the show takes dramatic liberties, it closely follows the police investigation led by Delhi Police’s South District team, similar to Season 1's realistic portrayal of the 2012 Nirbhaya case.

The series uses this historical context to question whether the "Kachcha Baniyan" gang is a specific criminal entity or a often slapped onto the marginalized.

The second season of Delhi Crime promises to be more intense and gripping than the first. With a stellar cast, including Shefali Shah, Vivek Oberoi, and Aashna Mukherjee, the show will keep you on the edge of your seat. The series is expected to delve deeper into the complexities of the Indian crime world, shedding light on the motivations, rivalries, and consequences of gang violence.

Delhi Crime Season 2 is not based on one single case file, but rather on the decades-long cat-and-mouse game between the Delhi Police and the organized, violent robbery gangs known as the 'Kachcha Baniyan' groups, who terrorized the capital with their daring night raids.

The series attempts to humanize this struggle, showing how poverty, systemic neglect, and lack of opportunity create a breeding ground for crime, while simultaneously highlighting the police's struggle to maintain order without profiling entire communities.
