Shekhar Home

I don't understand. Why we settle for cheap copy paste. Why can't we be original like Byomkesh Bakshi? May be stalwart like KK Menon needed money, but do we realise how all this impacts Brand 'Bharat'? Brand KK Menon? May be people who are going gaga over this haven't seen the original yet. Once they see the original they'll realise that there's nothing much to offer in direction, story line and even acting (as one needs to just copy the character). I started watching it and quickly realised the references from original are not just references, they are exactly lifted from the original show (Sherlock)

Rohan Sippy and Srijit Mukherjee's direction in Shekhar Home is a perfect blend of suspense and humor. They've created a unique atmosphere that feels both tense and playful, making the series a joy to watch. The attention to detail in the setting and character development is impressive, and their ability to balance multiple storylines without losing focus is a testament to their skill.

When I watched first episode, I was not that hopeful and it took some effort to continue. Having watched so many Sherlock adaptions already, this one felt unnecessary and KK appeared to be out of role and overacting. But as series progresses, you not only adjust to his style of acting, you also start to appreciate the background, the 90s setting and all the characters.

The stories are all adapted from original Sherlock stories but have that Bengal touch to it that still gives these stories some unique flavour.

The climax is good and though it starts to become obvious as end nears, it's definitely not entirely predictable and manages to throw in a good surprise.

I definitely recommend this series for anyone looking to enjoy a series during a relaxing evening.

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.

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.
