Ever since the first season of the Netflix crime drama web series ‘Jamtara – Sabka Number Ayega’ started streaming on the OTT platform, fans have been waiting for an update for the show’s follow up season. And just now, Netflix has confirmed through a date announcement video that the second season of ‘Jamtara’ will drop on the streaming service on 23rd September 2022. Check out the announcement below.
Created and directed by Soumedra Padhi, ‘Jamtara’ opening season is set in the Jamtara region of the Eastern Indian State of Jharkhand. The place is infamous for purportedly being a hub of internet-related and insurance/financial scams.
The show’s underlying premise is about a group of small-town and ambitious youngsters led by the protagonists Rocky (Anshuman Pushkar) and Sunny (Sparsh Shrivastava) who are the brains behind a profitable social engineering phishing operation. The story takes an interesting turn when a greedy politician sets his eyes on the profits of their business. Also on their trail is a police officer who is hellbent on fighting the illegal activities.
‘Jamtara’ Season-1 mostly received positive feedback from audiences and critics alike, so expectations would naturally be high for the show’s upcoming season and the stakes will be higher than before. The show currently holds an impressive IMDb user rating of 7.2/10.
After the streaming success of ‘Jamtara Season-1’ post its release in January 2020, the makers renewed it for a second season back in March 2021 when Netflix unveiled its slate of upcoming films and series. The show also features Amit Sial, Dibyendu Bhattacharya, Aksha Pardasany, Aasif Khan, and Monika Panwar in important roles.
