Anupriya was also seen in the web series Criminal Justice that also starred Vikrant Massey. She told mid-day, "The primary reason why I signed the project was that Tigmanshu sir [Dhulia] was directing the first two episodes. We've been wanting to work together for a long time, but things finally fell into place with this show. During the five-month shoot, my biggest takeaway has been working with Pankaj Tripathi. He is such a fabulous actor."

Criminal Justice captures Aditya Sharma's (Vikrant Massey) journey, as one incident completely turns around his life. 24-year-old Aditya Sharma lives with his middle-class family in Mumbai. He is ambitious but is aware of his middle-class roots, a decent boy who drives his father's cab to add to the family income. But life turns upside down for him when his last trip for the night ends with him being accused of the brutal murder of his female passenger.

Goenka admits she relishes the variety that the digital platform offers her over celluloid. "Web offers far more possibilities compared to films, which has several constraints, from censorship to budget. Though films may hold a stronger appeal, the sincerity with which both the mediums are being approached is similar. I don't distinguish between mediums; my only focus is to work on diverse projects so that people can take notice of my versatility."
