What is the plot of 'Tooth Pari: When Love Bites'?

Set in Kolkata, Rumi, a rebellious, bloodthirsty, and beautiful vampire breaks one of her ‘fangs’ during a hunt and consults Roy, a shy and afraid human dentist who lives next door, to get it corrected. Even though it might seem impossible sparks fly between Rumi and Roy and the only question that ponders upon them is really whether human and mystical forces can keep them apart. The premise of this romantic thriller series revolves around how an unlikely couple navigates romance when their meanings of a 'love bite' differ greatly!
