Talk:Byomkesh Bakshi

Alerting all Byomkesh fans
It's a shame that there is such a dearth of information on one of our most famous fictional detectives. I'll work on it over time but please add information as you see fit.

I modified it to the best of my knowledge,Pother Kanta is the the first Novel of Byomkesh Bakshi. Satyanwesi is considered for convenience NabarunBanik9191 (talk) 06:45, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

Reworking now
This is my major project for now... I am going to link each novel and then finalize the main-page with sections such as Main characters, Development of Byomkesh novels, Trivia, Influence on Popular Indian Culture and Sharadindu on Byomkesh. But I'll need some time, since my day job (which pays the bills) is really taking up most of my life right now. --Antorjal 05:19, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

The Episode Listing
I would also love to see the episode listing of the popular series of Doordarshan. I did a half hearted google, but in vain. I have no idea of the total number of episodes either as I was just 8 when this was screened. They used to mention the title as well as the place and year for each episode. Here is a incomplete list: Please complete this list and when completed transfer it to main page. 24 bemisaal             1960     one with female acting as both male and female.

25 balak jasoos         1963    one with the east benagli girl being killed on the roof.

26 chakrant             1963   one with the paralysed man killing other. Note:
 * Mungair was as written on the episode screening though the correct from is Munger.

I wanted to point out that in Bengali Byomkesh does not mean sky, but is another name for Shiv or Mahadev. "Byom" means sky."Kesh" means hair. Singhir mama (talk) 21:45, 16 April 2012 (UTC)

Correlating Bengali story titles and Hindi episodes
This is for the sake of completeness. Would be grateful if any person knowing Bengali can do it for everybody's benefit.
