Byomkesh Bakshi

Spent my childhood watching it, the stories and characters still give me goosebumps. There are some stories I still remember even after so many decades have passed.

However it's an adaptation but still no adaptation had been completed with this much perfection except Basu Chaterji, with some unforgettable performances from Rajit Kapur , KK Raina. The soul of all the episodes were suspense, background score & simplicity.

This TV series is an example of how a good TV show can be made with very less budget. It did not have special effects, high drama ,but what it did have is a very good script with a good cast and more importantly it had its heart in the right place. Best things about the show is ,things are kept very simple ,never deviates from its plot and the lead character Byomkesh is shown to be a keen observer with good knowledge of Science(Very rarely shown these days) . One of the best TV shows ever in Indian Television history.I love every episode of it. There are hardly such shows anymore. I wish more people watch it and make shows on similar lines.

I saw the series when i was a small kid still i remember this series and love it because it was fantastic.Just loved every episode of it..It had such brilliant performances and Rajat Kapur as the Bengali detective was brilliant..

The cases were very different from the regular murder4money stuffs.. Byomkesh Bakshi came at a time when the satellite channels were not filling the satellite slots with dumb serials and that time Doordarshan had some decent shows on air and this one was the best of the lot .It was a low budget detective show but it had everything -mour,action,brain teasers and most importantly a script(which is missing in 90% of the shows these days)

Greatest ever detective series to hit Indian TV. THAT is it..

Simply the best show ever on Indian television.!!! What else can one say. It had everything from drama, action, thriller, comedy.I still watch its episodes on Computer.Some episodes are pretty awesome.Like the episodes Aadim shatru,Bemisaal,Adrishya trikoon.They still are good as they were in those days. Those were good old TV days Byomkesh, Hum paanch, Shaktiman, Fauji.Also not to forget Malgudi days. And the short stories of DD national. There was just one Detective serial else that i liked. It was Jassos Vijay. It also used to come on DD and was sponsored by BBC to spread AIDS awareness in rural India. Now a days they show all crap on TV.All the saas bahoo crap and all.
