Dabba Cartel Twitter Review: 9 tweets to read before watching Shabana Azmi and Jyotika starrer crime-thriller

Starting this past Friday, February 28th, Shabana Azmi’s crime-thriller series titled Dabba Cartel became available for streaming. With a captivating trailer, anticipation among fans grew steadily in the lead-up to its release. Now that it has been unveiled, viewers have been eagerly consuming the show and voicing their opinions on various platforms like X about this highly-anticipated production.

Based on feedback I’ve come across from online users, some people have commended Dabba Cartel for its captivating narrative and exceptional acting by the main cast. However, others have expressed that they found it somewhat predictable.

A viewer penned, ‘An enthralling story of crime, deceit, and power. #DabbaCartel doesn’t disappoint! The narrative seems reminiscent of #Ozark, yet it boasts a strong cast of powerful Indian women. The comparison to #SaasBahuAurFlamingo is unavoidable, but both hold their unique positions. #ShabanaAzmi shines brilliantly!’

Five working-class ladies, simply Dabba Makers, found themselves in a tight spot, needing quick money. Their solution – the illicit world of drugs hidden within their Dabbas. The tale of their struggles, escapades, reckless decisions, and captivating performances make Dabba Cartel an exhilarating journey, as another fan put it.

A spectator expressed her dissatisfaction with the show, “Dabba Cartel left me feeling let down. On paper, the characters were intriguing, but on screen I failed to form a connection with any of them. The concept had great potential, but the presentation fell short in some way. It was just too predictable and dull.

The first season of Shabana Azmi’s show didn’t seem to be enjoyable for another user, but they are still looking forward to the second season with anticipation, wondering what might happen next. The review said: “No fun…something strange was going on. Still waiting for the second season to find out.

In the meantime, a thrilled spectator exclaimed, “I thoroughly enjoyed #DabbaCartel on Netflix India – a spicy storyline with some fantastic acting! @AzmiShabana and Shalini are excellent. I think a catchy theme song like Narcos, perhaps in Marathi or Gujarati, would have been amazing! By the way, Sheila Ben should definitely have her own series. When is season 2 being released?
