Karmma Calling

The problem isn't copying or being inspired the fantastic show Revenge. The problem is they keep literally carbon copy it to the extent that you might aswel have just seen revenge with hindi subtitles and you'll be watching the original at least. Whatever happened to originality.. I mean its not like Bollywood hasn't got a long track record of copying hollywood exacting the result..I would understand if it was based on real life or true events it would be understandable but in this day and age? And the amount of money Bollywood is making. They could invest all that money into writing a good story rather than spending 90% of the budget on a nationwide dance sequence with everything and the kitchen sink in it.

It is an interesting watch. Good actors. And good acting. Had me invested and I watched all seven episodes back to back. Only to find a cliff hanger ! When will the next Season be releasing ? I feel the episodes could have been more crisp. Felt a few memories were being repeated which was dragging the serial a bit when one is impatient to know what is happening next. I understand it is based on the original series Revenge. It may not be as crisp as Revenge but since the serial is not available in India - am glad the Indian version is at least available for us to watch. Namrata Sheth looks elegant and poised. Amy Aela is cute! Waluscha D'Souza is sizzling. Raveena Tandon is now a senior actress and good.

Web Series Review: Karmma Calling streaming on Disney+ Hotstar!!

A simple plot where a mysterious woman Karma Talvar ( Namrata Seth) comes to Alibaug, gains the trust of the elite who are based out of the place with the motive of extracting revenge for the wrongs done to her and her family!!

Nothing new in the plot , even though it has been adapted from the American Series "Revenge". Been there & seen it a million times !! It is basically Bazigar with a female protagonist. The Madan Chopra in this case being Indrani Kothari ( Raveena Tandon) .

Casting isn't too good with beefy block faced hunks mascarading as actors !! Eye candy for women but not good for the series unfortunately!! Basic casting mistakes cost this series dearly!!

Raveena Tandon is the only saving grace in this average web series with a little help from the protagonist Namrata Seth. Everyone else is average!!

The ending too has been left open 😡. Is it the supreme optimism & belief of the makers, that the series is going to be renewed for a second season that makes them do this time and again !! For heaven's sake look around.. there are better ways to end the web series on a logical note & yet keep the story open for a sequel !! Not done guys .

This series spanning 7 episodes with each episode around 40 odd mins and an inconclusive climax isn't the best of what we see on OTT nowadays. The bar has been set too high nowadays!!

Overall it isn't a total washout but lagta hai kuch toh Kami reh gayi kahani main !!

Going with 2/5 for this one .. Adios 🙂!!

Very badly presented. Makeup of the stars also v over the top.

V bad story line, bakwas copy of Bazigar.

Unrealistic and vague.

Naive presentation.

They tried to include Jo jeeta wo hi sikander too.

Every thing happening too fast .

Just rediculus............................. Ahan has nothing to do looks clueless all the time, he is just playing sport or swimming...... Has nothing to do.

Karma has been shown oversmart.

She acts like God ....... Doing whatever she wants every time..tooo Unbelievable.

Her friend Zen character also comes out of no where.

V old cast There is no flow what so ever.

Blankly events are happening.

Don't watch Save your time.

Absolute crap copy of REVENGE. The characters casted do not suit the roles at all. The remake of great series like revenge. Revenge is absolutely great and the actors playing their respective characters look like those characters and you actually cannot imagine anybody else playing those roles. This is an absolute miscasting.

Plus one needs to Indianize it in some way. There are so many shots or sequences which look frame to frame to copy. No fun !!

Saw just a bit and I felt like turning it off.. which I did.

I recommend people should watch revenge for the actors / the characters they have played and the direction. Please watch it for Medline Stowe & Emily Van Kemp.
