How close is this to the Byomkesh of the stories/novels?
I have never read the sources so would like to hear from the fans.
The density of the plot and its emphasis upon atmosphere as much as storytelling reminded me more of Raymond Chandler/Philip Marlowe than Arthur Conan Doyle/Sherlock Holmes. The 90s Doordarshan serial was more in the latter vein.
A minute ago this was the safest job in the world. Now it's turning into a bad day in Bosnia.
