Synopsis

Byomkesh Bakshi is a Bengali Detective who takes on spine-chilling case with his sidekick Ajit Bandyopadhyay. Byomkesh identifies himself as Satyanweshi meaning 'truth seeker' rather than a detective.

Basu Chatterjee adapted each novel by Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay into an episode (except Chiriyakhana and Adim Ripu, which are made in two part episodes).
