Tooth Pari: When Love Bites

Watched 3 episodes. So far so good.

A vampire comedy in the zone of Taika Watiti's "what we do in the Shadows" and probably inspired by the same, which is evident by the lighthearted and playful mood. But the world-building, the setup, and the characters are original and interesting and not copied.

Also, the title "Tooth Pary" itself suggests that the makers are not taking it too seriously, and neither should the audience, they should have fun while watching it.

A great ensemble cast includes veterans like Adil Hussain, Revathy, and Saswata Chatterjee.

Looking forwards to the remaining episodes, will update after completing the series.

Not sure why these directors are trying to make TV series which are mainly for Indian Audience and revolves around Indian characters but the story is far removed from being Indian. It seems that these type of directors are heavily influenced by Hollywood horror movies but not in right ways. Instead of adopting modern movie making and storytelling styles and techincal expertises they are blindly following the age old Hollywood story tropes. And it's really funny watching Netflix falling for this types of contents.

Watching toothpari is like watching a Hollywood fan film(read series) made by a Hollywood fanboy.

The story was greatly immersive especially the acting of the characters so yeah in short please watch this series. Now in long, story might be feeling too tedious and not well managed but this series age like a fine wine especially after episode 4 and most importantly you may feel this plot is some kind of a rip off, of any vampire Hollywood series or movie but actually it is just a story independent of its own. The perspective of who's on the right side and who is on the wrong side might be changing throughout the series and some characters might feel annoying at first but they indeed as this first season ends basically all become quite useful. Meanwhile the ending was the best part of the series with few hints regarding season 2. So yeah I think Netflix should start making its season 2.

The Director has done a lot of hard work in this series which reflects from each and every scene of the series. The direction has its loose ends. Though the series at first takes good pace and puts audience in a suspense mode but at the end it leaves some loose ends which will create many questions among the audiences about the series and the consequences of the actions of the characters of the series. The acting of the whole cast is praise worthy. The editing is smooth. I think this series should have been released as a movie in theaters . I am sure it would have attracted box office collections. The Director has beautifully depicted the old lanes of Kolkata city and its bangaliana. Sikander Kher speaking bengali words reminds me of the tone used by Mithun Chakraborty in his hey days while pronouncing bengali words. Overall the series is watchable and enjoyable excluding some minor plot holes.
