Plot
Live
Telecast
follows
Jennifer
Matthew
aka
Jenny
and
her
crew
who
are
trapped
inside
a
haunted
house.
Post
the
intro
credit
of
the
film,
the
story
takes
the
audience
to
a
horrifying
incident
that
happens
with
a
love-struck
couple.
The
film
revolves
around
a
reality
show
named
Dark
Tales,
that
goes
in
search
of
real-life
horror
stories
and
telecasts
it
incorporated
with
in-depth
research
about
the
whole
incident.
In
order
to
garner
more
attention
of
the
audience
for
her
reality
show,
which
according
to
Jenny
has
international
standards,
she
plans
to
capture
a
ghost
on
tape
and
go
live
through
her
channel,
which
indeed
creates
ruckus
among
her
crew
members.
Script
And
Direction
Though
director
Venkat
Prabhu
introduces
us
to
the
dark
realities
of
Television
channel
and
TRP
hungry
reality
shows,
the
storyline
of
the
web
series
lacks
to
bring
in
the
required
effect.
The
loose
writing
of
the
script
is
very
evident
at
many
places,
which
indeed
fails
the
web
series.
The
sequences
and
the
way
the
story
unfolds
will
definitely
make
one
question
even
the
genre
of
the
film.
Though
the
live
telecast
concept
of
the
web
series
is
appreciable,
the
execution
of
the
same
failed
miserably.
Performance
Kajal
Aggarwal:
The
beautiful
diva
plays
the
high-spirited
director
of
Dark
Tales.
The
actress
as
Jennifer
Matthew
aka
Jenny
does
complete
justice
to
her
role.
Her
fascination
for
ghosts,
black
magic
and
supernatural
activities
is
also
convincing
in
the
film.

Verdict
Kajal
Aggarwal's
Live
Telecast
is
a
one-time-watch
web
series.
Though
the
diva
is
a
treat
to
watch
on
screen
as
always,
the
storyline
and
boring
sequences
make
it
a
strenuous
job
to
watch
the
series
in
one
single
stretch.
