ABAR BYOMKESH !!!



Ke? Ke okhane? The group photo disappeared from Mahidhar’s house. After getting cured partially from a dangerous ill for 2 months or so, Mr. Bakshi along with his wife and friend went to visit Samsing, a place under Darjeeling District of West Bengal. They stayed in a rented bungalow beside the Professors’ Quarters. The big businessman invited Mr. Bakshi and his family members to attend a small party at his house. Mr. Chaudhury’s wife died few years back. Mahidhar’s one and only daughter, Rajani got married at the age of 14 years. The widow daughter sang a beautiful Rabindra Sangeet song in that party. ‘Sakhi bhabona kahare boley; sakhi jaatona kahare boley; tomra je balo dibaso rajani Bhalobasha Bhalobasha, sakhi bhalobasha kaare koye; seki keboli Jaatonamoy; seki keboli chokher jal?  seki keboli dukher swaash? lokey tobe kore ki sukher ee tore emon dukher aash?’

Few months back, a new Manager took the charge of a Branch of Union Bank of India in Samsing area. Mr. Sarkar clicked a photo of the picnic party. Three copies of that photo were sold. Other than Mahidhar; Mr. Ghosh and Professor Shome also bought one copy each of that photo. Nakulesh confirmed that the negative of that photo was missing from his studio. Falguni was expert in drawing portraits of a human being after seeing the face of that human being for once only. Adinath was not happy in his married life with Malati Devi. Umanath always used to wear a black-glassed spectacle as one of his eyes was blind. Someone injured the District Magistrate on a night. Local DSP, Purandhar gave the information that Mr. Pal stays in the wooden factory at the backyard of Mr. Chaudhury’s house. Inside the jungle of Kalimpong area, a young girl was enjoying secret romance with a doctor. Byomkesh and Mr. Bandopadhyay went to the District Magistrate’s house, but, that photo was missing from the album. 

Rajani had love affairs with two gentlemen! On that night, one lover met with the girl and the other lover watched them. Malati Devi was out on that night to follow her hubby. The Assistant of the Detective followed the Professor’s wife. The talented painter fell from the bridge as he was totally in a drunkard mood! Mr. Pandey got a small silver box of District Magistrate from the side-pocket of Falguni’s shirt. Mr. Ghatak was buying a bag inside a shop. Byomkesh bought a ladies’ perfume for his wife, Satyabati. Ashwini was planning to celebrate the New Year time in Kolkata. The Bank Manager bought a painted picture for 200 bucks. Ki Byomkesh Babu, ki bhujhchen? Daarun ekeche naa? Chamatkar Chobi, Falguni beche thakle ami oke diye amar ekta chobi aakatam. Mr. Raha was surprised to hear that Mr. Pal got murdered. Amaresh had a plan to return to Samsing on 2nd January! Professor Shome became furious after hearing the allegation from Byomkesh that the Professor was having an extra-marital affair with a widow.  Satyi satyi, keute saap apnaara dekhen ni Ajit Babu. Apnaara kichhu jaanen na.

The Post-Mortem report confirmed that the drunkard was murdered. Both the Detective and the DSP were trying to go into the depth of the murder case. Malati Devi was suffering from Tuberculosis. Nakulesh was also planning to go to Kolkata to celebrate the New Year with his family members. Few years back, the small businessman borrowed some amount of money from Mahidhar, a big businessman. Where were you during 8 PM on that night of murder? Why the doctor became furious on Byomkesh? Rajani went to her aunty’s house at Kolkata with Ramdin, an old servant of Chaudhury family. Mahidhar mentioned about two letters to Mr. Bakshi and Ajit. One of those letters mentioned about the love affairs between Ashwini and the girl of Chaudhury family. Aapni ki jaanen jeh daktaar aaj bikeler train e Kolkata jacche. Purandhar saheb, aapni ready toh? Absolutely! Train raat aath taa e. Saabdhaan! loaded ache. Abashyoi, Gooli toh cholbei. On the night of 30th December, was Byomkesh Bakshi successful in arresting the real culprit to compel the culprit to utter the culprits’ frustrating dialogue, “ABAR BYOMKESH !!!” ?
