Jamtara: Must See Tweets Before Watching Netflix Series; Twitter Verdict Out Now

Netflix dropped the first Hindi Original series in 2020, titled Jamtara. The dark and gritty show is based on the Jharkhand Phishing Scams and follows a group of tech-savvy boys with big dreams.

The trailer shows a group of guys tricking people into online transactions by impersonating bank employees. They take details about their debit cards, OTP numbers and scam them for huge sums of money. According to the trailer, eventually, the boys find themselves tangled into a big phishing scam due to political influence, while a female cop on their tail is determined to stop the racket. The show takes place in Jharkhand, known as India's cyber-crime capital.

Even though it has only been a few hours since the show is out, Twitter is already praising the show. Some users from the UK have also been asking when the show will be up on the streaming platform. Take a look:
