The stories were made into a popular television series (one of my favorites) by Basu Chatterjee featuring Rajit Kapoor as Byomkesh Bakshi. However it is completely adapted to Bengali culture by the author. The character is inspired by Sherlock Holmes. Byomkesh Bakshi is a fictional Bengali detective created by Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay in 1932. Have you heard the name of Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay ? I guess, the answer will be “No”. But I am not going to talk about these notable literary figures of Bengal. Chaudhuri, Bibhutibhushan Bandopadhyay, Taslima Nasrin etc. I am damn sure you must have heard the names of Rabindranath Tagore, Arundhati Roy, Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, Nirad C. I am also a big fan of Bengali literature. Bengal is famous for its literature, poets and rich culture.
