Jennifer never played a saree clad bahu on TV. So, it was evident that she wouldn't play the girl next door in her digital debut. In her first digital show, Code M, produced by Juggernaut Productions, Jennifer played an Army lawyer, Monica Mehra. She is chosen to solve the death of an army officer and two militant suspects, killed in an encounter. However, while the case seems like an open and shut one, it gets murkier as she unfolds it.
