Raveena Tandon, Shefali Shah, Radhika Apte - Most loved female cop characters of OTT

In the past two years, streaming platforms have bombarded the audience with vast content, varying roles and edgy narratives. Female leads are exploring intense roles and many of them have also donned the uniform to play a tough cop. Here’s taking a look at powerful female actors who have convincingly played a cop.

2/5

Shefali Shah in Delhi Crime

Shefali Shah’s tough cop act in this series, which has been inspired by real events, was totally impressive. As Vartika Chaturvedi, the actress took charge to investigate a grisly crime set in the capital. With Shefali Shah headlining the series, ‘Delhi Crime’ went on to bag an Emmy Award for Best Drama Series. A second season is in the pipeline.

3/5

Raveena Tandon in Aranyak

Seasoned actress Raveena Tandon picked a perfect project for her OTT. As a cop in 'Aranyak', Kasturi Dogra set about to solve a murder in a picturesque, tourist village. She added a rustic touch to her bold and blunt demeanor in the show and it perfectly struck a chord with the audience. The first season ended on a cliffhanger, promising an even more engaging season 2.

4/5

Yami Gautam in Dasvi

Yami Gautam donned a uniform for ‘Dasvi’, wherein she essayed the role of an IPS officer Jyoti Deswal. With Abhishek Bachchan’s character lodged in jail, Yami played the perfect superintendent in this movie. Her disciplined and nuanced performance won Yami a lot of praise from the audience.

5/5

Radhika Apte in Forensic

This psychological thriller stars Radhika Apte in the role of a fierce police officer Megha Sharma, who is in charge of a small hill town of Mussoorie. Along with forensic officer Johnny Khanna (Vikrant Massey), she sets off to solve a mystery around a birthday killer. Her edgy act in this Zee 5 movie kept the audience gripped till the very end.
