Farah Khan Hails Huma Qureshi’s ‘Delhi Crime 3’ Villain, Says She Deserves Every Award

Qureshi plays Meena, a trafficking‑network boss in the newly released season directed by Tanuj Chopra.

Overview

  • Delhi Crime season 3 premiered on Netflix on November 13, bringing back Shefali Shah, Rasika Dugal and Rajesh Tailang with new additions to the ensemble.
  • Huma Qureshi said she avoided a ‘filmy’ caricature by using Haryanvi and building a trauma-driven backstory to make Meena feel real.
  • The actor called the role the darkest she has played and framed Meena as a calculating mastermind rather than a subordinate figure.
  • Farah Khan wrote on Instagram that she was “astounded” and “a bit scared” by Qureshi’s performance, joking she would “snatch” any awards the actor does not win.
  • This chapter explores a human-trafficking network and the Delhi Police response, with production by Golden Karavan and SK Global Entertainment.
