He was a member of the Desi Hoppers dance crew, which won the 'World of Dance 2015 Championship' in Los Angeles and received high praise from judges Jennifer Lopez, Ne-Yo and Derek Hough, who admired their unique style and fusion of hip-hop and Indian culture. Maheshwari made his movie debut in 2022 with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Gangubai Kathiawadi', in which he co-starred with actress Alia Bhatt. In 'Tooth Pari: When Love Bites,' Maheshwari plays Roy, a shy dentist who falls for a vampire.



 

Tanya Maniktala as Rumi

Tanya Maniktala, who rose to fame as Ishita in 2018's 'Flames,' gained international recognition with BBC One's adaptation of Vikram Seth's 'A Suitable Boy,' in which she played Lata Mehra. The actress gained widespread praise for her performance and will soon make her movie debut in 'Mumbaikar', alongside Vikrant Massey and Vijay Sethupathi. Maniktala plays Rumi in 'Tooth Pari: When Love Bites,' a bloodthirsty, beautiful and rebellious vampire who falls in love with a shy dentist.



 

Revathi as Luna Luka

Actress Revathi is well-known for her work in Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu, Hindi and Kannada movies. In the movie, she plays Luna Luka, leader of a group fighting against vampires in 'Tooth Pari: When Love Bites'. Speaking about her part in the show, the actress told The News Minute, “A lot of thought has always gone behind any project that I have chosen, and Tooth Pari: When Love Bites is no exception. When I heard the script, I knew it was a genre I had never traversed into earlier. This was not a normal story but something new that our director, Pratim Dasgupta, had envisioned and plotted in the city of joy, Kolkata.”



 

Tillotama Shome as Meera

Tillotama Shome plays Meera in 'Tooth Pari: When Love Bites,' who is defined as a person who epitomizes the idea that "normies are boring." She is happy and content with her life in her world full of vampires eager to discover the human world. She seems to have no desire for human blood nor does she have any interest in getting to know any humans. Her outrageous attire and unconventional thoughts set her apart. She has interesting ways of "training" young vampires to start making their moves in the human world as a veteran. It will be extremely interesting to see Meera's reaction to Rumi falling in love with a human dentist.
