If you are looking for a crime series that will focus on the part of daily lifestyle, you are going to enjoy it. Jamtara crafts crisp episodes with dramatic hooks and mounting tension that urges you to click on "Next episode".

Jamtara introduces us to a new but half-baked world of phishing fraud. But at the same time it introduces us to some new raw talent of actors who give compelling performances.

The phishing fraud is touched only on a peripheral level with a group of village kids calling gullible customers from metro cities and asking for their credit card details to make fraudulent purchases. In reality, am sure, the phishing fraud has more to it. However this aspect doesn't hurt much as phishing is only used as a backdrop to this crime caper which has the regular trappings of ambitious kids hoping to make quick money, a corrupt politician, a new cop trying hard to cleanse the village, gang war between rivals, et al. In that respect the show creates a crime world of its own like 'Mirzapur' though the treatment is not pretentious like 'Sacred Games'. While the makers do not break new grounds in coming up with a crime world which we haven't seen earlier, they do present what they have with grit and conviction.

Most episodes of around 20-25 minutes are an easy watch and have interesting hook points ensuring you binge watch to an extent. Unlike other shows that come up with superfluous subplots to fill up runtime for around 10 episodes, here the narrative doesn't stray far. The main characters are well-etched. The pace drops and the flow goes a little abrupt in the last couple of episodes. And just when you start rooting for the protagonist despite him being an archetypal anti-hero, the show ends with an abrupt moral tone of 'crime-never-pays'. The end however is more conclusive as compared to other shows in the genre that end midways to make route for a second season.

Technically the show is well-crafted and the performances are a major highlight. Sparsh Srivastava as the lead is superb. Anshuman Pushkar as his rival has a hangover of Vivek Oberoi in his looks and Manoj Bajpai in his acting. His character however doesn't get much scope after the first few episodes. The female cast have strong characterization with Aksha Pardasany and Monika Panwar giving nuanced performances. Amit Sial glides smoothly through the role of a corrupt politician. Dibyendu Bhattacharya as the conflicted cop is also good.

Jamtara is a show that you will enjoy while you watch but might not stay with you long after.

Worth a shot... Dont keep expectations but it's good acting show... But seems something is missing at the end little bit of incompleteness.

This series is not about cyber crime happening from jamtara. It's about a corrupt politician who is involved in phishing. 90% of the focus is on politian, gang rivalries, petty fights and how to capture the politician. Very less scope is given to show how phishing is done in jamtara . Every episode has 1 phishing call where scammer gets the credit card details.

There is no details about how phishing started in jamtara, how they get phone numbers, how they get so many sim cards, how they transfer the amount to bank accounts , how the scam is tracked to jamtara etc. Focus is only on the crime after phishing is done and its after effects. Cast is also a let down. Sp dolly was total misfit and also the cyber research guy.

This series is a big let down from Netflix. It's just another series about corrupt politician. The videos related to this series in YouTube from Netflix is much more better. Those who are expecting series about cyber crime , avoid this.

Loved the series. couldn't stop myself to complete in single day. Very well acted. Specially by Bhaiyaa jee "Amit Sial". I think no one can act better then him when it comes to an role of an "Bahubali politician or Upper caste in society ". He really brings acting into reality. And i also loved the part of those two friends telling Mahabharat story Every time, they acted like catalyst.
