Jen, a significant character in the ‘Bheriya’ comics, plays a crucial role not because she harbors romantic feelings for Kobi Bheriya but because all the denizens of the jungle recognize her as the only one capable of confronting formidable creatures like Kobi. They know she can understand and communicate with Kobi, making her the key to peaceful coexistence. However, Jen’s first encounter was not with Kobi and Bheriya; it happened with Bheriya when they were not two separate entities.
To delve into the intricacies of Jen’s character and her association with Kobi and Bheriya, one must explore the world of animals and read the ‘Kobi’ and ‘Bheriya’ comics. Jen was on a mission to capture her father’s killers, a group known as the ‘Bhura Billa,’ even though she was aware that her father was the underworld don. Her motive was not revenge but the eradication of crime. It was during this quest that she found Bheriya in a distressed state beneath a collapsed cave, and with Jen’s help, Bheriya was able to return to India, rescuing him from the clutches of Bhura Billa, who had taken him to France seeking revenge for his brother Kala Bachcha’s death.
Jen, working side by side with Kobi, safeguards the jungle’s animals and tribes. With her sharp intellect, Jen has saved both Kobi and Bheriya on numerous occasions, such as in the ‘Bachna Mushkil’ comics when a blood demon entered Bheriya’s body. Fuzo, an adversary, claimed that the only cure was a rare blood type that they didn’t possess. The tribals, in desperation, prepared to sacrifice Bheriya to save the others. However, Jen, extracting blood from Kobi, nullified the blood demon within Bheriya. Their blood being the same due to their shared body, the blood demon met its demise.
Jen, a fearless character capable of facing any situation, develops a romantic interest in Bheriya. However, their unity faces a dilemma when Guru Raj Bhatiki divides Bheriya into two bodies. Jen finds herself torn between Kobi and Bheriya, as both want her by their side. In an attempt to merge them, she acquires a boon from Guru Raj Bhatiki in the ‘Balkuthara’ comics. However, the Kuthara community demands a sacrifice, leading Jen to break the mystical gem bestowed by Guru Raj.
The ‘Blast’ comics depict the initial meeting between Jen and Bheriya. Bheriya ends up trapped in a blast, and by sheer luck, Jen reaches the site while searching for her father’s underworld gang. With Bheriya’s help, she not only defeats Bhura Billa but also returns to Asam. Their journey together continues in subsequent comics.
Jen, since the separation of Kobi and Bheriya, strives to reunite them. Despite facing the conflict of interest between Kobi, her husband, and Bheriya, her love interest, Jen’s primary goal remains their unity. This conflict escalates to the point where the two engage in a life-threatening battle, prompting Jen to jump into a gorge. Kobi and Bheriya, putting their differences aside, join forces to save her.
The ‘Balkuthara’ comics, eagerly awaited by fans, took an unexpected turn as Kobi and Bheriya merged into one body. This unique storyline explored the bizarre rituals of the Kuthara tribe, shedding light on a dark and mystical aspect of the jungle. Jen, in her quest to unite the two, sought Guru Raj Bhatiki’s help, leading to a series of events that required the breaking of a mystical gem.
In “Balkuthara,” Jen’s character really comes to life when she must decide whether to sacrifice Bheriya or Kobi in order to keep peace. Despite the obstacles, Jen persists in her efforts to reunite them..
