Shekhar Home

Love KK and Mr Shorey as actors. Infact love every actor that appeared in this series, even the ones who did cameo roles were brilliant. The story sucks you in and keeps improving in even episode. Thr mystery remains till end and the twists and brilliant and almost unpredictable even for a mystery crime savant like me who has read every Agatha Christie book more than a few times. The series is very atmospheric, easy gentle paced (still thrilling) and reminiscent of olden golden days of Byomkesh Bakshi. The best part was there was no political, woke or religious agenda pushed at you, which is refreshing in this day and age. The music is SUBLIME, just like this series and we, the audience want MORE of it please.

Watched this series with low expectation.. And watched it for KK Menon and Ranvir Shorey and they didn't disappoint. Every episode has a different detective story except the last two episodes which are interconnected.

At first I thought it would be a adaptation of Sherlock Holmes series but it's not. I repeat it's not.

There isn't any big mystery or something in every episode but they were decent and it won't bore you.

Although there is a bit of shocker waiting for you in climax which gives this series a bit more breath of fresh air... Otherwise I would have given it 6/10 had it went on expected lines..

Enjoy 🍻

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.

I have yet to watch the original BBC Sherlock Holmes story on which this Indian adaptation is based; therefore, I would humbly refrain from drawing any sort of comparison here.

Although I'll gladly admit I have taken a liking to the cast selection here. Kay Kay Menon as Sherlock, aka Shekhar, offbeat yet a genius persona was spot on. We all know he's a capable actor, and he did perform to his merits here.

The same remark applies for Ranbir Shorey too for he had gelled well as Shekhar's witty and inquisitive partner in investigation.

As for the format, whilst the first four episodes are treated as mini stories, with different type of crimes and their varying resolutions, last two acted as critical junctures to Shekhar's mysterious handlings in the past which led him right into a bigger conspiracy.

Suffice to say, I liked the concluding episodes better, primarily because they had more depth and material to show for.
