The story centers around Omkar Singh, a Punjab Police retiree who lives in Jalandhar with his wife and two sons. Upon return from Delhi, the elder son (Happy) accidentally exchanges a similar-looking bag with another passenger's (Maheep Sodhi) at the train station. When Maheep, who is the younger brother of a businessman-turned-politician (Ajeet Sodhi) arrives at their home to reclaim his bag, a fateful incident occurs that puts Omkar and his family in a precarious predicament. The story of Tabbar follows the lengths Omkar will go to protect his family whilst navigating a web of deception and inquisition.
Tabbar received positive reviews from the viewers and the critics. The Times of India stated it to be an "Engrossing and intense family drama".[10] "The story keeps one hooked on to it," said Dainik Jagran. ABP called it to be an "Enthralling thriller with amazing performances".
MoneyControl stated, "the storytelling is so compelling that you will watch as the lies and blood keep mounting."[11]
KoiMoi said, "Pavan Malhotra-led thriller is as dark as it gets without a minute of ease."[12]
Prathyush Parasuraman of Firstpost wrote, The tension rarely slips, and the acting, aided by Sneha Khanwalkar’s moody melodies, ground you to a world you begin to care enough to be devastated for.[13]
Shweta Keshri of India Today wrote, Tabbar boasts of some great performances. Pavan Malhotra is exceptionally good in the thriller, who gets into his character of Omkar Singh with ease.[14]
