will be played in the theaters of North America after the firm Databazaar Ventures purchases rights to show the film over Netflix, Amazon and Roku streaming. The very successful Bengali film will also be available in all leading retail stores across North America in the near future.
Byomkesh Bakshi has been one of the most loved detectives of little children in Bengal. The detective was first introduced onscreen by maestro filmmaker Satyajit Ray through Uttam Kumar in his 1960s release Chiriakhana. Based on the writings of Saradindu Bandopadhyay, Byomkesh Bakshi came and won hearts. The 2010 version of Byomkesh Bakshi was based on ‘Adim Ripu’, one of Saradindu Bandopadhyay’s stories featuring the detective.
Abir Chatterjee in and as Byomkesh Bakshi came and won hearts in Bengal and Anjan Dutta will be looking forward to the same response in North America.
