Cast

Production

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

The film was made available on Disney+Hotsar in May 2021. [5]

Reception

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]

The international adoption of South Korean children was at first started as a result of a large number of orphaned mixed children from the Korean War after 1953, but later included orphaned Korean children. Religious organizations in the United States, Australia, and many Western European nations slowly developed into the apparatus that sustained international adoption as a socially integrated system. This system, however, is essentially gone as of 2020. The number of children given for adoption is lower than in comparable OECD countries of a similar size, the majority of adoptees are adopted by South Korean families, and the number of international adoptees is at a historical low.
