The narrative of Jai Mahendran revolves around Mahendran, an ambitious officer who uses his connections inside the system and powerplay to accomplish his goals. However, when he yields to the same powerplay, his liberty at work is restricted, and his morality is questioned. In an effort to keep his position and rebuild his reputation, he plans to take advantage of the entire system. The main intrigue of the web series is whether Mahendran can carry out his tricky scheme.
