Detective Byomkesh Bakshy

Friday, February 13, 2015 • Hindi Comments

YRF's next 'Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!' is based on Saradindu Bandyopadhyay’s well-known and successful fictional detective, Byomkesh Bakshy and is a contemporary interpretation of Calcutta during the 1940’s. In fact, this is the first in a series that will feature Bengali bestseller writer Saradindu Banerjee's most famous creation and India's widest read and best known detective character for the first time in a Hindi feature.

Directed by Dibakar Banerjee, the film stars Sushant Singh Rajput in lead role along with Bengali actress Swastika Banerjee, who is making her Bollywood debut with this one.

This co-production venture of YRF and Dibakar Banerjee Productions (DBP) is a first directorial outing with the director. Also, this first of its kind detective film is an adventure thriller mired in deep political intrigue.

A young, astute and intelligent Byomkesh, fresh out of college, pits himself against a mega world villain, depending more on his intuition and instinct rather than concrete proof, to solve the case, sometimes overstepping the law if needed.

'Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!' releases worldwide on 10th April 2015.
