In the following years, Taghvai worked on various projects for both cinema and television. Among these, his adaptation of the beloved novel
My Uncle Napoleon became a cultural phenomenon. The television series captured the humor, irony, and emotional warmth of Iranian family life, and it continues to be regarded as one of the greatest achievements in the history of Iranian television. Through it, Taghvai showed that satire and tenderness could coexist, reflecting both the absurdities and the affections that define ordinary human relationships.
