Satyajit Ray’s iconic private investigator Pradosh Chandra Mitra, lovingly called as Feluda, is a beloved part of the life of every Bengali reader. The Bengali detective novels featuring Feluda and his impeccable investigative skills, have been an integral part of every Bengali’s growing up years. Their English translations have been devoured by Indian readers of every age and linguistic preferences. Feluda is not just a fictional character, it is an emotion for every Bengali.
