Earlier in an interview, Richa Chadha had opened about her role in the series. The actress said “My part in Six Suspects is extremely layered and complex. She is an upright investigating officer who is trying to make it work in the male dominated investigation space… I have wanted to work with Tigmanshu Dhulia for a while, since Paan Singh Tomar. This is also based on a good book. So you will see a lot of shades in my character.”
“I am blessed to find these amazing characters on OTT. Films have the pressure of box office, but here content rules supreme and we get to discover hidden gems like Pratik. I am really happy we are working together. The kind of stories you can’t imagine in cinema, we are able to share such narratives on OTT. It is a great time for talent,” she said.
