Detective Byomkesh Bakshy is based on the early exploits of India’s first true-blue detective, created by Bengali bestseller writer Saradindu Bandyopadhyay. This first of its kind detective film is an adventure thriller mired in deep political intrigue. The film is set in the Second World War torn Calcutta during the 1940s and follows the first adventure of Byomkesh Bakshy, fresh out of college, as he pits himself against an evil genius who is out to destroy the world. Using his wits against the most villainous arch criminal the world has seen, in a world of murder, international political intrigue and seduction, Byomkesh depends more on his intuition and instinct rather than concrete proof, to solve the case, sometimes overstepping the law if needed.
To launch the trailer of Yash Raj Films’ forthcoming adventure thriller, YRF Studios was transformed into 1940s Calcutta with Director Dibakar Banerjee, along with leading man Sushant Singh Rajput, taking part in the grand event.
Sushant, dressed nattily in a cool designer dhoti and a typical Bengali jacket, arrived in a hand-pulled rickshaw, a popular mode of transport in Calcutta. He also surprised the audience by pulling the rickshaw off-stage himself! Sushant in his cool style, along with Dibakar Banerjee in his inimitable style, interacted with the media and left the audience applauding and wanting the session to continue.
At the trailer launch, coincidently on Sushant’s birthday, everyone was treated to delectable Calcutta street food fare like Luchi, Aloo’r Dum, Jhal Muri, Momo and Mishti Doi in a backdrop replete with a larger than life Byomkesh Bakshy jumping over the iconic bridge and street vendors completing the realistic world of 1940s Calcutta… and this is just the beginning!
