The Love Sex aur Dhokha director has collaborated with YRF for the Sushant Singh Rajput starrer

In the past, Dibakar Banerjee who has made National award winning films like Khosla Ka Ghosla and Oye Lucky! Lucky Oye! has mostly worked with small producers and on a very tight budget.

In a conversation with Bollywoodlife on the sets of Detective Byomkesh Bakshi, Dibakar confirmed the news saying, "Yes, this is my most expensive film. However, if we compare with other big films that are made with special effects and huge sets, my film is much less expensive than that." The Shanghai director further added, "Since I am quite disciplined and planned I always make sure that things go according to the schedule and there are no hiccups in the path." We don't doubt your ability there Mr Banerjee, considering the budget of your previous films, this is nothing less than a luxury for you. Right peeps?

Even before the release of director Dibakar Banerjee's Detective Byomkesh Bakshy, with Sushant Singh Rajput playing the title role, plans are afoot to make its sequel! Produced under the Yash Raj banner, the film that recreates the Kolkata of the '40s is based on the story written by author Saradindu Bandyopadhyaya. However, when contacted, Rafique Gangjee, the official spokesperson of YRF, said, "It is much too early to plan a sequel of a film that hasn't released, but with our investment in all the stories, the potential to make Detective Byomkesh Bakshy into a franchise certainly exists. Let's wait and watch as the mystery unravels."

  Sushant's Teaser with SRK's Film

  
  

  ome time ago, Sushant Singh Rajput had admitted in an interview to HT Caf that he is "an actor because of Shah Rukh Khan". Now, call it pure co-incidence or planning, the teaser of his film with director Dibakar Banerjee will be seen along with SRK's Happy New Year.

  "The teaser of Sushant's upcoming project has been attached by Aditya Chopra's company " which is distributing SRK's film as well as producing Sushant's movie," says an insider.

  Interestingly, viewers will also be able to see the trailer of Aamir Khan's next, P.K., with Shah Rukh's film. Apparently Aamir's next was attached to the film through exhibitors. "And, in all likelihood, he will be launching the trailer officially a day before Shah Rukh's film releases (October 24)," adds the insider. And it doesn't end there. Apparently, a trailer of Ajay Devgn's next will also be seen with the Farah Khan-directed multi-starrer.

Teaser 3.5 months before release?! YES go YRF! woot woot!!!!

I feel the trailer will come out on Nov. 14 with Kill Dil.

"I'm still a huge film fan"

Dibakar Banerjee talks about his next project Byomkesh Bakshi and his life at the

 

Mumbai, Oct 16 (IANS)

Film maker Dibaker Banerjee, who is currently editing his film "Byomkesh Bakshi", says his film has got nothing to do with famed fictional detective Sherlock Holmes as his film deals with "an original Indian character".

There were reports that "Byomkesh Bakshi" resembles resemblance to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's character but Banerjee says it is not true and there is no logic behind this.

"Somebody told me that Byomkesh Bakshi is like the Sherlock Holmes stories... I think it's ridiculous. In that case why will I buy the rights of Byomkesh Bakshi, why would I buy the rights of 31 stories from Byomkesh Bakshi series. There is no logic. 

"Byomkesh is an original Indian character and with a whole new connect to the Indian audience which a Sherlock Holmes cannot have because he is not from India."

The detective spy thriller, based on the popular Bengali detective created by Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay, features Sushant Singh Rajput in lead.

Asked if he is satisfied with the film, Banerjee said: "I am still editing it and I have never been satisfied with anything that I have done in my life."

Detective Byomkesh Bakshi is India's Sherlock Holmes- Dibakar Banerjee

Dibakar Banerjee gearing up for the release of Detective Byomkesh Bakshi starring Sushant Singh Rajput talks about the plot of the film.

Dibakar Banerjee is having a good laugh at the rumours doing the rounds about his upcoming next film, Detective Byomkesh Bakshi starring Sushant Singh Rajput.

Recent reports stated how Dibakar's film, DBB is inspired by the international character of Sherlock Holmes and how they have similarities.

However Byomkesh Bakshi is the biggest and the most famous detective character of India. There is a series on the character but this is the first time a movie will be made on him.

There are a lot of interesting elements about Byomkesh Bakshi that can be showcased through Dibakar's film. So, there was no need for them to take inspiration from Sherlock Holmes.

When contacted Dibakar he laughed at the rumours doing the rounds and added, "Detective Byomkesh Bakshi is an answer to Sherlock Holmes, not Sherlock Holmes. Byomkesh Bakshi remains the first and the most famous Detective in India wholly and solely Indian at heart, actions, methods, setting and style. This is the first time that Byomkesh will be on the big screen for all of India and the world! Why ignore the real Byomkesh stories - some of the most striking and original in the world - and borrow from a English franchise with no desi connect? Byomkesh Bakshi is an original and Desi jawab to Sherlock Holmes in Desi bhasha. He is completely original, secure and Indian from his dhoti to the Calcutta Tram ticket in his kurta pocket that is a clue to a mystery!"

Detective Byomkesh Bakshi is all set to release on 13th February 2015.
