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 🍻

Kay Kay Menon ! I am his fan so no words to describe his acting. In the begining you may find it boring or stereotype but my friend wait till the end there are many surprises. I was not happy with the name but it was justified so well. Overall everything works so well in this series. Direction, acting and most important the series is based out in 90s and they have shown us with very low budget you can create such a wonderful series.

I would love to watch Menon again in such roles and I hope BBC will continue to produce another part of its there.

Lastly, if you love crime solving series, this is for you. Please don't compare with Benedict's Sherlock home and enjoy over Indian espionage Mr. Menon.

Go for it !! That's my word.

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.

When I watched first episode, I was not that hopeful and it took some effort to continue. Having watched so many Sherlock adaptions already, this one felt unnecessary and KK appeared to be out of role and overacting. But as series progresses, you not only adjust to his style of acting, you also start to appreciate the background, the 90s setting and all the characters.

The stories are all adapted from original Sherlock stories but have that Bengal touch to it that still gives these stories some unique flavour.

The climax is good and though it starts to become obvious as end nears, it's definitely not entirely predictable and manages to throw in a good surprise.

I definitely recommend this series for anyone looking to enjoy a series during a relaxing evening.

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.
