Tooth Pari: When Love Bites is a series written and directed by Pratim D. Gupta starring Tanya Maniktala and Shantanu Maheshwari. With Sikander Kher.
When Anne Rice moved vampires from old Europe to America and then ended up in San Francisco, the experiment was a success, and then it came the movie with Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise playing Lestat.
Now the vampires have been living in the catacombs of Calcutta for several centuries and they wear… a different kind of outfit.
About the Series
Tooth Pari: When Love Bites is a classic vampire comedy series, one of those that, deep down, are not very funny and that, no matter how far we go back in the genre, we can’t find a halfway decent reference.
However, they still have their audience and now Bollywood is trying its luck again -not very successfully, by the way- with this light romantic comedy,...

There is always that one ‘mature’ and ‘worldly wise’ person who is indispensable to the youngsters, teaching them the tricks of the trade. Tillotama Shome’s character Meera does just that in Netflix’s upcoming romantic fantasy thriller series Tooth Pari: When Love Bites.
Addressed as ‘poetry in motion’ Meera personifies the idea that ‘normies are boring’. In her world full of vampires, who are eager to explore the human world, she is content and satisfied with her life! She doesn’t yearn for human blood, nor does she wish to interact with any humans. She stands out with her zany attire and her unconventional yet very evolved articulation of thoughts. Being a veteran, she has her own unique ways of ‘training’ young vampires to make their moves in the human world.
It’s interesting to see how Meera reacts to Rumi falling in love with a human dentist and what her advice would be.
