Karmma Calling

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 🙂!!

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.

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.

The makers spent too much money in casting Raveena Tandon and dressing the actors. They should have spent a little more money on the story, direction and editing. The overall story is hardly 4 episodes worth. They stretched it too long unnecessarily. All actings are extremely poor and quite a few over acted too much. Especially the young actors all needed an acting workshop. Including the main protagonist. Screenplay is hilarious. Useless overlappings and parties make the series dull and dragged. Predictable story line and no logical conclusion to any event. Police and law enforcement is practically shown as useless entities. I am not even going to watch the rest of the episode when it releases.

Tropic was good. But not fully fulfilled. The beginning was very good. That too till the fourth episode but then as the episode progressed Tropic started moving off its track and finally lost. It has been dragged and enlarged for no reason. A lot of unnecessary things are shown which would have been in the series even if it wasn't. In some places script writing like TV serial has been done.

Ravina tandon has acted well in other movies or her last serial "Aranyak" also has acted well. The rest of the performance is not worth watching.

Art director and costume designer have done a good job. Both are quite remarkable and deserve appreciation. Cinematography is also good at several places.
