Production[edit]
Shooting of the mini-series took place in Noida Gautam Budh Nagar, Uttar Pradesh in 2019 and post production was completed in spring 2020.[3] The film was noted as a shift in the acting career of Bidita Bag, who was so far "best known for tough characters in The Sholay Girl, Babumoshai Bandookbaaz, and Abhay" and thus "had a change of pace. The actress was recently seen in the comedy-drama Teen Do Paanch alongside Shreyas Talpade", which showed her wish of making more commercial films.[4]
Release[edit]
The film was made available on Disney+Hotsar in May 2021.[5]
Reception[edit]
The miniseries was panned in a review for The Times of India, titled "Teen Do Paanch season 1 (...) : an inept take on adoption with poor performances and weak script".[6] Another review was less negative but insisted nonetheless on the forthcomings induced by the format chosen: "There is no denying that Teen Do Paanch would have worked better as a feature film. Watching over a dozen episodes of 10 minutes each can be a little exasperating."[7]
