Makers decide to reshoot some portions of Netflix’s Delhi Crime 2

By: Mohnish Singh

Netflix India on Wednesday announced its line-up for the year 2021, which included several original series, films, stand-up comedy performances, and documentaries. The returning season of audience favourite Delhi Crime (2019), which went on to win the award for the Best Drama series at the 48th International Emmy Awards last year, also found a mention on the impressive line-up.


According to reports, Delhi Crime is expected to start streaming in the second half of 2021. However, we hear that the makers have decided to reshoot some portions of the second season before it drops on the streaming service.

“The makers have decided to reshoot some portions of the series. This reshoot is going on at present. All the actors and crew members willingly came forward to get it done,” a source close to the development told a publication.

Queried about the reason behind the reshoot, the source divulged, “The makers were happy with what was shot but they felt that they could have done it better. Delhi Crime’s first season has attained a cult following. And following the victory at the Emmy, they do not want to leave any stone unturned. The expectations from Season 2 would be tremendous and this time, not just India, but the whole world will be tuning it to see it. Hence, they want to deliver content that is not just compelling but out of this world, on the lines of Season 1 or maybe even better. Hence, when they felt that there was scope for improvement, they decided to go in for a reshoot.”

Shefali Shah, Rasika Dugal, Adil Hussain, and Rajesh Tailang led the ensemble cast of Delhi Crime. The original star cast returns for season 2 as well.

Laura Dern reunites with Mike White as 'The White Lotus' recasts after Helena Bonham Carter’s exit

Highlights

Laura Dern steps into one of television’s biggest dramas

Just days after Helena Bonham Carter made an abrupt exit from The White Lotus, HBO has moved quickly by bringing in a familiar face for creator Mike White. Laura Dern has officially joined the fourth season of the Emmy-winning series, which is already filming in southern France. While Bonham Carter’s departure sparked curiosity about what happened behind the scenes, Dern’s arrival shifts the focus back to the show itself and adds another major name to one of television’s most closely watched franchises.

Why Laura Dern feels like more than a replacement

Dern’s casting stands out because this is not her first collaboration with White. The pair first worked together on Year of the Dog before reuniting for HBO’s Enlightened, which they co-created and which earned Dern a Golden Globe. That history makes her casting feel less like a quick fix following Bonham Carter’s departure and more like White turning to a long-time creative partner he trusts. Dern also brings considerable star power, having won an Academy Award for Marriage Story and starred in projects such as Jurassic Park, Wild and Big Little Lies.
