This is the first time a film based on the concept of vampires has been conceptualized in Bengal with an indigenous flavor to it especially for the Bengali audience. Adding to the good news, Dracula Sir has also been released nationally, with a hint to an amazing start to the festive season, for the nationwide audience.
Produced by SVF, Dracula Sir is not limited to a mere predictable story with supernatural elements of vampire in it. There is a lot more to it, as the film works in layers. It is a tale of a simpleton fighting with his own alter-ego in search of his true-self and long-lost love. The story revolves around a primary school teacher with a protruding pair of canine teeth who earns himself a nickname Dracula Sir.
