The CinePearl Take

Rajput delivers a standout performance, balancing Byomkesh’s razor‑sharp intellect with a rebellious, almost reckless charisma. Dibakar Banerjee’s direction injects the film with a stylized noir palette, making the fog‑laden streets of Kolkata feel both historic and haunting. While the plot occasionally meanders through sub‑plots, the central mystery retains a taut, engaging momentum that rewards attentive viewers.
