ByomKesh Bakshi, the great detective from Bengal is back on DD National 1 on Mondays 10 or 10:30 PM. Will tell you about the exact times as soon as I find out or if there are any other Bakshi fans, PLEASE let me konw.
Brings back the memories of his wonderful cases. I was inspired so much by him that I wanted to take up jaasoosi as a full time career but bloody BIT ruined it.
Also the post by CATMANIAC gives me and idea about recreating the entire series in text. Lets do it episode by episode (if there are enough people interested).
hey saurabh thanks a lot for that info. me too a big byomkesh bakshi fan. me too wanted to be jasoos at one point of time . ur idea of recreating the seris is a good one.
Byomkesh Bakshi is a magnificent character created by Saradindu Banerjee. He is seen to differentiate himself from a common detective by calling himself 'satyaanveshi' ('a seeker of truth') and not simply a detective.
Satyajit Ray has directed one Byomkesh Bakshi whodunit - 'Chiriyakhana' - way back in 1967, starring Uttam Kumar as Bakshi and Sailen Mukherjee as Ajit. Has anybody here seen the movie? It's a pity that Ray himself did not think much of whodunit genre of movies as a whole.
And yes, the DD serial was terrific.
okay ,, this is for ppl who dont recall the pen walal serial..
theres is this old man,, who is addicted to this makdi ka ras.. and their family has no idea where he gets it from... cause the old man's room is empty apart from a bed, and some side posts and stuff,, his only wierd activity is writing on pages some crap... with one blue pen and a red pen. every month the doctor confirms he has a regualr intake of makdi ka ras.. but no body knows how,, the old guy gets a few balnk pages every month by some post from some unknown add,, but t he pages are checked and found to contain no clue.,.
any one recalls how does the guy get the makdi ka ras???
if i dont see a post in response,, ill post a reply...
hi all
gr8t to hear that bb is back on air.love his work.my peronal fav is the episode where a person who was sent to jail by bb comes back and plots to kill bb.he acted as a dead body lying in a morgue in this one.
another 1 that i like is the 1 in which a person bb to find a precious stone which he himself hides.in the end bb finds it in one of his statues.
well it's a gr8t idea 'bout scripting bb,i almost remmember most of the episodes.so i am willing to join in the fun
hey BB was a gr8 serial guys . the title song takes the cake . those days we had to watch WHATEVEr DD dished out , but BB was different . it can even compete with today's hi-fi serials . that was the first i saw of rajat kapur . that guy is gr8 . looking to catch the re -runs
I never thought ther would be so many fans and ACs of our dear SatyaAnveshi. PagalGuy ROX.
And reading the posts so far, I think I don't remember the episodes :((. Would like to recreate them with the help of people (in text form and if I get time, in Flash). Lets decide on a episode and everyone could send in the inputs about that particular episodes and the ones gifted with English Language can try and create a script.
PagalGuy version of Sherlock n ByomKesh.
P.S. My favorite is the one in whihc there is patch of quicksand amidst a jungle and as soon as people hear the tigre roar, they would go and stand on the quick sand.
Help
Will have to wait 1 whole week for the next episode.
