A good detective story accurately portrays the crime and the logical analysis which eventually reveals it. A "great" detective story is something which goes beyond it.

First, it focuses on the social aspects of the story by describing the characters and the often complex relationships between them. Second, it not only reveals the criminal but also reveals why might he have committed the crime or for that matter what situations might have led (forced) him to commit the crime. Towards the end of a great detective story the reader (viewer) is bound to empathize with the criminal.

This film is a great cinematic version of a great detective story. The acting is excellent. Abir's role as the detective Byomkesh playing battle of wits on one hand, and becoming a dutiful husband back in his home on the other would have made the author (Sharadindu) proud. Shaswata plays a cameo in a short role as Ajit. Generally speaking, the direction and screenplay are good, and cinematography is excellent accurately capturing the period of the early 70s.

The film is not flawless though. The character of Benimadhav is not very well developed. Moreover, what Byomkesh refers to as a Bengali novel was actually a book of poems by Tagore.

Besides these little flaws, the film is almost perfect and is definitely the best Byomkesh film delivered till date.

Acting: 8/10 Music: 6/10 Story: 9/10 Thrill: 7/10 Direction: 8/10 Byomkesh: 10/10

As a whole, the movie is not disappointing. Though, I expected a little more thrill but I am not dissatisfied either. All the characters were almost perfect.Unlike the movie which was done by the same director in 2010, this movie keeps up the suspense until the end. And obviously the family fights between Byomkes and his wife adds the extra little-bit. It also portrays Byomkes as not only a detective, but he is a man who wants to know the truth and also become a friend to help in personal situations .

Of course a full Bengali story. How different a perspective can be towards a prostitute! This movie makes me feel humanity is above all!

This is an average movie. just about pass marks with a lot of grace marks, can be awarded to this movie. I wonder why movie makers nowadays deliberately immerse in sexual explicitness in every Byomkesh movie, when the original story has just a hint of it.,, or none at all...This is destroying the charm and grace of a Byomkesh Bakshi movie,,./// especially when the tone and standard have been set high up by Uttam Kumar and Rajit Kapoor, and also Gaurav Chakraborty...We need to reinvent the sleuth in his true avatar...however the movie succeeds in creating a mystery...that is all about it. Actors' talents have not been fully utilized in the film...
