Byomkesh

I will recommend this to anyone wanting to dip their toes into the Byomkesh world. One does not need any prior knowledge of Byomkesh. The way this show is presented is very simple. One story per episode and as of this moment there is total of 11 episodes containing 8 stories. This is the best presentation of Sharadindu's Byomkesh in my opinion.

Just like who is the best bond, there is a debate as to who is the best Byomkesh? I have no qualms about it. Only thing I know is that Anirban Bhattacharya's acting was excellent. The best thing about his Byomkesh is that he looks very human. Just like us only a bit smarter. Other cast members were excellent as well. Subrat Dutta as Ajit and Ridhima Ghosh as Satyabati was superb. The sound design was excellent neither too much nor too little, just perfect for the suspense to build. The production value is high and consistent throughout the seasons.

I really enjoyed Byomkesh (2017- ). The story was presented in a simple manner. The runtime being short, there was no room for extra masala. It felt almost like reading a book but in a more entertaining manner. The pacing was excellent, no boring moments. This show is excellent for people who has not yet read or seen much of Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay's Byomkesh.
