Jehanabad - Of Love & War (2023– ) User Reviews

One of the best webseries ruined by a cheap last minute scene

[ravish9 · 8/10 · 7 February 2023]

I was just hooked to the entire series and can say that it is one of the best webseries ever made. Romance and conspiracy both were brewing aide by side. From camera to dialect dilaogues to direction and performances...everything was spot on. No dull moment or drag aa story keeps taking new turns regular.

By the end of all 10 episodes when you start feeling that you watched a great show...God knows from where the Director and writer turn suddenly into a DCKHD....and set a great example how a great story and wonderful show can be ruined in just 1 minute..and that 1 minute scene comes at the very end..totally unwanted meaningless and just like a nightmare in a run of good dreams.

If you just stop the show at the last shootout scene, thjs entire web series will rule your heart as the best web series of this year so far. But if you move to the end, you will start hating it.

So many great performances, such a solid true story...you feel for it man. Had some good friend of the writer and director suggested them to remove the last 1 minute scene! But nah..naxal sympathetic Mr. Sudhir Mishra like idiot was the show runner who must have ensured such end of otherwise a great web series.

Watch it until last 1 minute, and its among the best web series made ever.

Overrated

[collinsenosh · 6/10 · 4 February 2023]

This show is avoidable.

Jehanabad is so annoying to watch it makes one wonder, who writes these? The only positive behind the series, is its aggressive promotion. Again, it makes no sense, who is spending money on such hopeless projects?

The love story is also cheesy. It saddens me that the cast is actually talented. Harshita Gaur shone here. Ritwik Bhowmik was fine. Satyadeep Misra is the best of the lot.

The real villain perhaps is SEO. These are formula ideas, not very original. The audience can see through it. It is time writers start respecting the audience, and their time.

Not even worth trying.

Not the real story

[autooiteam · 6/10 · 6 February 2023]

This is something else than what actually happened in jehanabad. I was there when jail break happens and I can say that the romance shown was impossible even now in jehanabad. It was actually ferocious and they made a joke of whole jail break. The jail break part was actually broken and not shown in full context. I think the director and actor should stay in jehanabad for 1 month before planning such nonsense and using name of place. Only real thing is name of place "Jehanabad" and rest all location are fake. Jehanabad series is not near to Mirzapur or Gangs of wasyepur but in actual the status was worse which was not shown. Glorified the naxals which is not good.

Act of mother is near to factual but act of daughter and father is of delhi and mumbai not of jehanabad.

If you are using the name then show the the truth dont morph it.

We seriously laughed at whole series 🤣 (because I belong from jehanabad) and the ending is super worst way to provide suspense.

Very well written by director

[anik-10182 · 28 February 2023]

Very well-written and directed story. I'm in in love with this fantastic series Jehanabad and can't wait to see it again. Given how charming the story is, I find it impossible to forget. With such an incredible plot and direction, the actors' performances in the series get a big thumbs up from viewers. Very well-written and directed story.

Average Storyline With a Predictable Drama

[dhariyasharma-62365 · 7/10 · 6 February 2023]

It was a total average film. I would say not too good not too bad. The story is completely dragged up still it isn't over. The trailer shows u that the main focus is on the jailbreak but here seems like that a lot of romance had been added. Could have surely avoided the romance. The Director Could Have Easily Wrapped Up The Series In Just 6-7 episodes. I would say a topic nicely picked but had not been executed properly. You can easily go for it if you have nothing left to watch but it's not that type that u have to watch. Season 2 will be phenomenal if it goes the way the audience is thinking.

All-Over:- A One Time Watch Film With A Nice Topic But Average Storyline.

Montage of the show.

[zubairzubi-78038 · 7/10 · 27 February 2024]

Overall,the is engaging and providing full of entertainment which cast had done finest job. The roughness, environment, tone, blend with real life events, chemistry between Abhimanyu Singh and Kasturi Mishra (finest performance by Harshita Gaur)especially and other respective supporting cast,make it one time watch webseries. And about story which is most important for any show but here it lacks, duration of the whole season it could be make more attractive by contributing towards it's screenplay, cinematography, direction, and focus on Story.

It is one one time watch Web series with average story and finest performance by all the respective cast.

Rajeev Barnwal Writing and Concept is just Brilliant

[podiencecasting · 10/10 · 3 February 2023]

The way Rajeev Barnwal explains the whole incident actually needs lots of research and hardwork ,and we can see it completely on the screen .The Writing, Concept and Direction is just Brilliant other than this I actually love the Music in the Episodes which actually connect you the roots of the story .Actors done there job really well and Location for the series is completely connect you that period of incident in between 2005 to 2007 .Costume Designer also done there research for the perfection of the attire used to wear during the period . Production designer also give justice to there job .lastly Hats off to Rajeev Barnwal anad team for there Excellent Effort.

The Beams of Love

[rehmansoc · 7/10 · 6 October 2023]

The plot, if you're seeking a thrilling crime drama, look elsewhere. But it's heartwarming romantic story manages to captivate the audience from start to finish. This film beautifully explores the real beauties of love and relationships. They effortlessly convey the emotional depth of their characters, making the audience root for their love story. It's a beautiful journey of love, filled with memorable performances, stunning visuals, and a compelling story that will leave you with a warm heart and a smile on your face.

It's a movie that will resonate with audiences and remind them of the beauty of true love. The end can be a different one.

Masterpiece

[roop-66068 · 10/10 · 5 February 2023]

I watched this series yesterday. What a series!!! I read these reviews but still i want to see this webseries as i loved the trailer. Thank god i didn't trust these fake reviews. This webseries is actually a doomed lovestory. People are writing negative comments because of naxal angle in it. Spreading negative reviews abt it bit actually it doesn't promote naxalites. Its based on himan relationships. I become fan of the writer . They why he has written script and scenes. I dont hav words to say. Actually u need a beautiful heard to feel these emotions . I m going to watch it again as i want to fall in love again.

Average show completely ruined by idiotic ending

[shripadkasture · 5/10 · 4 February 2023]

-2 stars for the ending. Completely wasted 10 episode watching. Just to stretch show for the multi season...they just wasted complete balance they created story wise in 9 episodes. So at the end, you really feel like idiot to trust makers and invest your time watching this ever slow and highly predictable 10 episode series.

Since Jail break was the main topic of this series. They should have put more focus on it. This Jail break operation happens so funnily and conviniently .. I mean com'on.all the security people shown like dumb and deaf in terms of fighting naxals...DO NOT go by this route. Better watch any other series.

Beautiful love story trapped in this world of hate

[rajatsharmaa-95099 · 10/10 · 5 February 2023]

Just finished watching Jehanabad of love and war series on sonyliv app and I must say the series left me thinking at the end of it.

I was not very enthralled with the trailer as such but when I started watching the series it kept me glued to the screen. You can not miss even a single scene or else you will lose the context.

The story is based and as the makers say inspired by real incident of Jehanabad jail break, I googled and read about that unfateful event, but what turned out in the series is a beautiful love story between Abhimanyu and Kasturi and how their own story gets entangled in the hate and politics of the place.

Every actor has played their part so well specially Kasturi and Abhimanyu that you want to root for them till the end. The songs are so good and take story forward in its journey and the 10 episode series has a lot of twists and turns aptly keeping you engaged till the end.

There is no preaching and everything has been kept simple and reasonable to understand. This series is high on enetertainment and very fast paced as I binged watched it.

Best part you can watch this series with family as it is not full of abuses and unnecessary body show like most of the OTT so called love series these days.

Its a period story and the treatment also takes you back to that era.

Kudos to the makers and Sony liv team for bringing such beautiful and unique stories to the viewers.

I throughly enjoyed it its a must watch.

Pathetic to say the least

[pramodbhufrench-11831 · 1/10 · 4 February 2023]

What a complete waste of time it was...Being from Bihar, i couldn't relate it at all... Vraisemblance was completely missing. .. Poorly woven stories...I am not cinema expert but pathetic web series i have seen in a long time...Avoid it if you can. Story is pathetic to say the least. Gaur looked a little genuine but rest of cast didn't do justice and how would they if the story is such a pathetic representation. Looks like some left winger wrote this to prove his point. This lacks emotion, drama, music and everything and third grade copy of Mirzapur who still stand tall...pathetic Sudhir Mishra ji ...we expected a lot but it's like khoda pahad nikli chuhiya.

A fresh love story that's so pure and endearing

[arjunadit · 10/10 · 25 February 2023]

Jehaanabad of love and war takes you back to the world of a pure love story that prevails amidst hatred and age old practices. The show is mind blowing and takes you on a journey where you get attached to the characters and start feeling for them automatically I watched the entire series in one go and it was really difficult to stop myself after few episode. The thrill the suspense and the what will happen next kept ME glued to my screen. I would recommend this series to everyone who wants to see an original story and also want to know about the biggest jailbreak in India and also if you want to experience a beautiful love story performed by the actors in a well written screenplay. Do not miss it.

Good drama

[sahaamrita-05204 · 10/10 · 27 February 2023]

One of my perfect choice !! I decided to watch this series because I knew it was a new series so just wanted to give it a try. And given how highly I would suggest the story, I would argue that it was my best choice. The show tells a number of stories with diverse individuals and various aspects. These are not poorly performed, either. Every single character is a success with the best writing and dialogue. Also, I enjoy the movie's songs and lyrics sbince they are excellent and relatable. It succinctly and admirably summarises the entire episode at Jehanabad, which took place decades ago. Must view as it's a very good story whcih very nicely describes the incident of past !!

Worst nding you will see in any series

[doulenrocks · 1/10 · 4 February 2023]

This is the worst ending that you will ever see. Writers were able to destroy entire episode's work by this ending. In core this is a jailbreak story but when it happened it looks so childish. Literally any kid will be able to write a better ending. After watching the ending you will feel like an idiot who wasted time in watching all other episodes. So save time and skip this series. 1 star from my side. 1 star is also too generous , if there was an option to give negative rating i would have given the same. Don't know why this is rated so high here. They should have done the justice to the story by giving a better end to it not this cheesy ending.

One of the best webseries ruined by a cheap last minute scene

[mallikag-59459 · 10/10 · 8 March 2023]

The plot revolves on the lives of four distinct characters: Kasturi, Abhimanyu, Deepak, and Shivanand Singh, each with their own distinct personalities and origins. In this concert, "Kahi Kuch Toota" is another hauntingly beautiful and extremely poignant song. The lyrics are heartfelt, and the music wonderfully reflects the protagonists' melancholy and helplessness. Overall, the program seems to be an intriguing blend of drama, romance, and political upheaval, with a brilliant cast playing the characters. Its complicated narrative and well-developed characters promise to keep people intrigued. That was an interesting show.

HORRIBLD ENDING

[singhpratima-81062 · 1/10 · 9 February 2023]

This show hooked me up the whole time only for such a horrible ending. This show have totally diminished the value of literacy It's a waste of time and is an aimless presentation of nothing. Atleast topic should have been explained with good content and ending should have been concluded meaning full action. It's aimless presentations, themeless shows. Last episode has main contributors to give the worst show. Sony liv should think before telecast this type of web series. Horrible experience after watching last episode. Please don't downgrade the whole education system for nothing to achieve. Watching this show is wastage of time, it's not worthy at all.

Superhit series

[sribalasarkar · 10/10 · 27 February 2023]

Not only a love story lover would like this series because it has too much for others too. The political aspects, the love story, the family manifestation and all the other various things make this a super hit series. One thing that i noticed was the bihari characterisation of the actors which really felt like the incident was real as it happened in the year 2005 in Jehanabad. This reminds me of the great story and performances with the perfect castings and direction. Surely one would love it !!

Funny series

[koushiksannyashi · 10/10 · 10 March 2023]

In episode 6, there was a shocking turn of events that completely threw me for a loop. I couldn't believe how well the director managed to get everyone to act and say their lines in sync. Kasturi's friendships with her peers are warm and supportive. It's funny to see them in action. These three ladies put in tremendous efforts in an attempt to win over their instructor, Abhimanyu Singh. The new places O found were exciting, and his invented universe is entertaining. Our need for love is seldom sparked by actual love circumstances.

Notwithstanding the delicate nature of the subject matter, the author addressed it head-on. These episodes are among of the best I've ever seen on TV.

Seems like something already wacthed.

[rajatawasthi-86329 · 3/10 · 4 February 2023]

Movie plot and story is very predictable, very boring and at every scenes feels like something which you have watched earlier also...lacks basic commonsense very half cooked love story...man tells lie, hides identity kills her own people and family member but girls end up becoming Naxal with him....no great music, dialogues, straight face acting....overall very ghissi pitti story and tired of such negative movies. Nowhere in comparison to Mirzapur or khakee...i would recommend watching khakee as its far better then this. Direction, inspiration is very bad it feells like very less work has been put into making of this movie and movie makers itself doesnt know what story they want bring you will never know series is revolving around which character...one thing for sure its definitely not a love story form any angle.

Magnificent And Enjoyed Music

[gsumedh · 10/10 · 8 March 2023]

"O piya o sajana" is a love ballad with a soothing effect. I wish to carry this wonderful lyric with me for a long time. A novel spin on the genre of love tale. The two actors have true chemistry together. When the audience can identify with the link between two on-screen characters, the tale comes to life. The cinematography is of high quality. Realistic television program. These outfits are incredible. Each of these personalities seems to be a real individual. Kasturi, her mother, and Abhimanyu Singh in particular. When the performers narrating a narrative have excellent chemistry, the tale becomes more captivating and memorable. Undoubtedly Watch now!

Glorification of naxlites

[pratiksahu-06995 · 2/10 · 4 February 2023]

I am very disappointed to see ritvik and rajat kaoopr in this disgusting film which glorify naxlite. The trailer cut looks promising and sets high expectations but overall the movie is a disappointment. The director did try to create suspense with lots of twists and turns but there's nothing interesting that the audiences might have not seen before. Greed and Betrayal is tried and tested and very BORING!! Movie is full of such irrelevant scenes. And these stupid creators were trying to make a nail biting thriller. Do they even know basics of film making. Bollywood should give up the making this type of series. They don't have any factual story, title, emotions, and even acting also... Worst series ever..

Very good story

[sarkaralok-89475 · 10/10 · 10 March 2023]

Dialogue is natural and engaging, and the screenplay is well crafted. All of the characters' interactions come across as very natural and believable, with no clumsy pauses or unnecessary repeats. Character emotions and motivations are conveyed well through the discourse. This enriches the stories' characters and piques the readers' or viewers' interest in what happens to them. It elevates the viewing experience and makes for fascinating viewing. Ritwik Bhowmik is a well-developed character who provides new layers to the narrative. They catch the eye of the viewers and make them curious about their backstory. The thought of watching this show excites me.

Nice series

[suchitasarkar-29443 · 10/10 · 10 March 2023]

The novel chronicles the lives of four

individuals, each with their own background and personality: Kasturi, Abhimanyu, Deepak, and Shivanand Singh. Kahi Kuch Toota is another hauntingly beautiful and emotionally powerful song in this show. The music is compelling and perfectly captures the characters' agony and despair, while the words are engaging. The show appears to be a captivating mix of drama, romance, and political upheaval, brought to life by a stellar ensemble. Compelling characters and a complex plot make this book a must-read. Exhibit of interest i really request to all my friends watching.

Web show that is not required

[kumarpushpanjay-83963 · 2/10 · 4 February 2023]

Complete nonsense and and no character building.. climax is great example of childish brain involved in this show. Sony LIV shall better think before adding such below average contents as they have given some real good binge worthy shows.

While you are trying to capture real incident you must present in a way it must feel natural. Authenticity and presentation is big minus in this show. Everything seems possible even without giving any effort.

Major drawback is all the characters who are desperately trying to capture bihari accent but couldn't and lead character is wasted without any motive to be in the show.

Its neither love or war just a waste of time...
