The official teaser of Arindam Sil’s

Byomkesh Gowtro

which will have a Durga Puja release has already got a lot of applause from the audience. Like every year, Bengalis favourite detective Byomkesh Bakshi is making a comeback with a new case, this Durga Puja, after a two-year long hiatus. In Byomkesh Gowtro, the audience will see Abir Chatterjee donning the hat of the Satyanweshi again with his best friend, Ajit played by Rahul Banerjee and wife, Satyabati played by Sohini Sarkar. The story is inspired from Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay's Rakter Daag. The teaser starts off with Arjun Chakrabarty as the suave casanova, Satyakam, who makes a curious statement to Byomkesh - “Death is the only thing that is certain in our lives, Mr Bakshi.” The intriguing bit is the part where he continues to say that, “If I get murdered, which I will, then you have to lead the case.” This is the first time, in a Byomkesh story, the Satyanweshi was informed in advance about a murder, that too, by the victim himself. As the teaser progresses, we see Satyakam’s relation with different women in

, his hometown. Byomkesh seems bewildered about the entire situation and asks the young man, “Why should I solve the case after your death instead of saving your life right now?” Satyakam’s reply will surprise not only the detective but also the audience as he retorts - “I know who will kill me and why”. The teaser ends with Byomkesh Bakshi’s one liner - “Seeking the truth is not just my profession, it is my passion too.”
“In the last 15 hours, the teaser has got one hundred and twenty thousand hits. which is amazing. As the maker of Byomkesh Gowtro, I feel humbled, proud and of course it is all extremely fulfilling. My phone has not stopped ringing from then. Anjan Dutta called me last night to say that he is proud to be part of my Byomkesh- what more can I ask for?,” said Arindam.
