Plot

Jee Karda follows the lives of seven childhood friends as they navigate through adulthood together. The series begins with a prophecy from a fortune teller, which the group seems to brush off. But, as they face the complexities of adulthood, the words of that fortune teller come back to haunt them. The show touches on various topics, including relationships, trauma, and validation seeking.

Acting

Tamannaah Bhatia makes her web series debut as Lavanya, a girl coming to terms with the concept of marriage. Aashim Gulati portrays the lively and spirited pop singer "AG the OG." The other actors are not bad, but Aashim Gulati stands out as he carries the flamboyance of his character with swagger.

Cinematography

Set in Mumbai, the series benefits from Mahendra Shetty's cinematography and high production values. Sachin Jigar's background music complements the entire feel of the show, with catchy songs setting the mood for various moments.

Direction

Directed by Arunima Sharma, with Homi Adajania pitching in for a couple of episodes, the show draws inspiration from the Hindi film 'Veere Di Wedding.' While the childhood conversations are endearing, the adult journey feels forcibly complex and muddled.

Conclusion

Jee Karda is a perfect breather from the world of crime, thrillers, and mysteries. It offers a humorous, wholesome, captivating, and sometimes cringey story that lingers on even after the credits roll. While it successfully touches upon various topics, the show falls short of eliciting emotions from the audience.
