I was not quite captivated initially by
Detective Byomkesh Bakshi – it seemed a good collection of movie sets and a
somewhat faux art storyline. At some indeterminate point, I began to get
captivated by its sheer relentlessness. Sushant Singh Rajput does well, but he
is supported by a solid ensemble of characters. However, all said and done,
credit for the movie goes to Diwakar Banerjee, who simply shines through with
screenplay that is near-psychedelic in parts. Will rank this alongside the
likes of Dev D, Page 3 and Rock On as hindi movies that surprised me hugely on
the upside
15.5/20
