Set against the backdrop of Mumbai, the series follows Bhumi Pednekkar as Rita Ferreira, Mumbai Crime Branch's newly appointed DCP, as she finds herself facing a cold-blooded killer in a high-stakes game of survival.
Alongside Pednekkar, the series also stars Samara Tijori and Aditya Rawal in lead roles.

The teaser opens to focus on DCP Rita Ferreira, a cop driven by justice yet haunted by guilt and the demons of her past, as she is drawn into a chilling pursuit of a cold-blooded killer.
It reveals victims brutally murdered - wrists slashed; mouths grotesquely stuffed with raw pieces of meat, mobile phones, and other objects; each crime exposing a deeply twisted psyche. As the investigation deepens, Rita finds herself caught between the savagery of the case and her own inner turmoil, while also confronting biases within the force.
Directed by Amrit Raj Gupta, it is written by Triveni alongside Sreekanth Agneeaswaran, Rohan D'Souza, Priya Saggi and Hussain Haidry.
'Daldal' is set to premiere on Prime Video across India and in over 240 countries and territories worldwide on January 30.
