Bymokesh Bakshi is probably the most filmed fictional detective in India. A number of the films/serials are obviously made in Bengal, pic 2 for e.g. is of Jisshu Sengupta as the detective in the fourth installment of a recent Byomkesh series.
There have been two versions in Hindi. Pic 1 is of the series made in the 1990s with Rajit Kapur as Byomkesh. The second is the recent film with Sushant Singh Rajput as the detective. The movie’s many stylistic touches extend to the characters costumes, though not overtly. Byomkesh for e.g. is often in a jacket instead of a shawl, in pic 3 he also wears the shirt tunic popular in North India. And shoes. Anguri Devi in the last pic wears the sequin sarees of the time. For Satyavati there are a lot of handlooms all worn in the then modern style of 6 yards. And refreshingly no puff sleeve blouse orlace. Instead there are the simpler styles of the 1940s.

“Where’d You Go Bernadette” and “The Goldfinch”: Coming Soon to a Theater Near You!
Plenty of best-selling and beloved novels will be coming out as feature films this year but two that I am particularly anticipating are:
Where’d You Go, Bernadetteis the story of an anxiety-riddled mom who becomes overwhelmed by the day to day choices in life and runs away. Her 15-year-old daughter is left to try to find out where she has gone and why she has left. In the process, she uncovers…
