Shekhar Home

Smart, quick witted and desi adaptation of the Sherlock series. While one constantly keeps the comparison on the back of the mind all the time, this is quite well written despite the tall standards it has to live up to. Kay Kay Menon does a phenomenal job. Though i would have preferred a younger lad to don his role. After a long long time one can really look forward to a desi sleuth series next edition.

The 90s setting, the Bengali nuances and the top notch characters written for the supporting roles as well puts this as an interesting one to binge watch. Each episode is quite different and yet seamlessly blends and transitions from the previous one. And the plots are well written to make it believable in the 90s setting.

Love KK and Mr Shorey as actors. Infact love every actor that appeared in this series, even the ones who did cameo roles were brilliant. The story sucks you in and keeps improving in even episode. Thr mystery remains till end and the twists and brilliant and almost unpredictable even for a mystery crime savant like me who has read every Agatha Christie book more than a few times. The series is very atmospheric, easy gentle paced (still thrilling) and reminiscent of olden golden days of Byomkesh Bakshi. The best part was there was no political, woke or religious agenda pushed at you, which is refreshing in this day and age. The music is SUBLIME, just like this series and we, the audience want MORE of it please.

All aspects are good , Directions,screenplay, & story.

Kay Kay menon was just outstanding with his best performance and the role is perfect for him.

Supporting roles also were good enough Only one negative is the screenplay sometimes feels lengthy and boring.

The climax scene was too dramatic.should have shown a lil bit downfall of snehashish(shekhar) for sometime and then could've shown the climax scene.

The ending clearly gives a glimpse that a 2nd part may come that was good.

Over-all the time of the series is okay not too short not too long.

Background score was outstanding and the string music was perfect with each scene.

Watched this series with low expectation.. And watched it for KK Menon and Ranvir Shorey and they didn't disappoint. Every episode has a different detective story except the last two episodes which are interconnected.

At first I thought it would be a adaptation of Sherlock Holmes series but it's not. I repeat it's not.

There isn't any big mystery or something in every episode but they were decent and it won't bore you.

Although there is a bit of shocker waiting for you in climax which gives this series a bit more breath of fresh air... Otherwise I would have given it 6/10 had it went on expected lines..

Enjoy 🍻
