Production
Mehta conceived the idea of Delhi Crime during a conversation with Neeraj Kumar, the former Commissioner of the Delhi Police,
who introduced him to the investigating team and provided access to
several legal documents that were prepared as part of the investigation.[9]
Later on, Kumar asked Mehta if he would consider making a film on the
case to which he denied. He then started reading the documents and was
"amazed at the precision with which this case was solved, and so
quickly." He also met the officers involved in the case and was "blown
away by them."[10] Mehta sought permission from the victim's family.[10] Mehta said that films like The French Connection (1971) and Zodiac (2007) influenced his approach.[10]
He modeled several portrayals of the cops based on his own observations.[10] Mehta said that the making of the series was a "personally transformative journey" for him.[9]
He spoke to several police personnel involved in the case and tried
"retracing the paths that the police took during the course of the
investigation."[9] It took Mehta six years to finish his research. The series was shot in Delhi over the course of 62 days.[9]
Mehta initially wanted to make it as a feature film, but as he
continued the research, he realised that he could not fit the content in
that length.[11] The character of Vartika was based on Chhaya Sharma, the former deputy commissioner of police in Delhi.[11]
Mehta met Sharma, who was in the team who caught the
perpetrators. They spoke for months as Mehta wanted her point of view in
the crime.[12] Shah also met Sharma for the preparation of the role.[13] The series spans six days, covering the period between 16 December and 21 December, from the incident to the final arrest.[12] The film went on the floor in January 2018 after taking permission from the Delhi police and the victim's family.[12] Mehta decided not to show the rape on screen as he wanted "not to cross that line into exploitation."[12]
Tailang's character was an amalgamation of different investigating
officers, but he spoke to one police officer and used him as reference
point.
