The series tells the story of young and ambitious people, who run a successful phishing scam from Jamtara, which was once called as India’s phishing capital.
Thinking of binge watching the web series? Here are five reasons why you must do so.
Storyline: How often do you find a web series or film which deals with the issue of phishing? For those, who don’t know, phishing is the practice of fraudulently attempting to obtain people’s secret information like passwords and credit & debit card details. The story of school drop-outs conning techno-friendly city guys will definitely catch your attention.
Acting: No matter how strong the script, if the actors fail to deliver, then any web series or film can flop. Amit Sial, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Aksha Pardasany, Monika Panwar, Sparsh Srivastav and Anshumaan Pushkar have done justice to their roles.
Perfect combination of crime and thriller: ‘Jamtara’ explores the world of phishing and how the youngsters con people with their distinctive ways. The series provides wholesome entertainment to the audience and also acts as an eye opener for the society. Crimes in small towns and cities are still not addressed in the country, which is a major issue.
Based on true incidents: The hard-hitting crime drama, directed by Soumendra Padhi, is inspired by real-life events. Interestingly, Jamtara’s cyber criminals have even cheated big celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan and Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh’s wife Preneet Kaur.
Entertaining and informative: The web series will not only provide entertainment to the audience but also make them aware about phishing. The next time someone makes a call and asks you for your bank details, you would know how to deal with it, right?
