Toothpari - Il morso dell'amore

Tooth Pari has been compared to the Indian version of the popular television series, Vampire Diaries, due to its dark and mysterious storyline.

Like Vampire Diaries, Tooth Pari is set against a backdrop of mystery and intrigue, with a range of supernatural elements and plot twists to keep the audience on the edge of their seats. The series also features a talented cast of actors from Tollywood (Anjan Dutta, Kharaj, Rajatava), who bring a sense of authenticity and realism to their performances.

One of the key strengths of Tooth Pari is its depiction of Kolkata, which serves as an immersive and atmospheric setting for the story. The city's unique culture and history are woven into the plot line, adding depth and richness to the narrative.

Tooth Pari features a stellar supporting cast (Saswata, Sikander Kher, Tillotama, Revathi, Adil), who bring depth and nuance to their characters, adding richness to the storyline.

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.

Well, it indeed has an engaging story line that falls in the realm of vampire and human romance. Even though some of the dialogues are a bit over the top kind of that can make one feel that they could have been tightened up, but still the story has enough in it to keep one interested till the last. That 'enough' is the love story between a vampire and a dentist. There are so many shades of the characters involved that one feels captivated. Like Rumi, her tragic human experience, her frustration after breaking up with the doctor and engaging in more mindlessness with sub-insoector Pal, portrays her vulnerability and a certain degree of human like frailties. Reminded me of the saying: 'Perfectionism is a delusion that dangles like carrot for purists to romanticize while inperfectionism rules the roost as evergreen and trendy perfectionism.' If the makers decide to make a season 2 they must ensure the dialogues, in some cases, are more polished. All in all, this version was an engaging watch.

It is definitely fresh take for Indian show involving vampires and making love its central theme around it . This show actually took time to make me interested after 3 episodes. It might happen with you as well . Actually story was fresh and unique to me thats what made me to go for this show but at some point ,I felt direction of some vital scenes could be better .

Directions of some vital scenes made me disappointed , I wish it could have better directions to make us feel more emotional towards story but none of these is taking away anything from story. Story is still fine and fresh which will keep you intrigued.

Each individual's performance is commendable and cinematography is fabulous. Talking about its narrative , this shows tend to show how society is somewhat cruel towards women throughout long decades to even now which is true . It tries to break the barriers and norms set up by society and make our girl central character to whom story revolves around which was pleasing to watch . Few times show try to teach audience which is totally fine with me as long as I support them and I did support them but only one scene pissed me off which I can call body shaming towards man which you will get to know . And also in that same scene, trying to show pre-martial physical relations to make look "good" to audience is also "not right" . I am not saying it is bad either . I think it should be left upon the partners to decide and no one should influence their decision ,not even parents.

In this show everyone's character is given perfect motivations making it hard to determine who is right and wrong. It all depends upon the circumstances in which they are.

Overall, this show deserves a 7-star rating and is the above average show for a free time watch.

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.
