Dibakar Banerjee takes dig at the British Raj in his next film Detective Byomkesh Bakshy! Sushant Singh Rajput plays the iconic detective, Byomkesh Bakshy in the film, who solves crime during pre-Independence era. But that's not what's bothering the Brits. So what is it?
Actually SSR's character has a dog in the film who is named Winston. The dog is named after the then Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Winston Churchill, taking a dig at the British ruling India. Dibakar Banerjee’s Detective Byomkesh Bakshy! is set in 1943, during the second world war when the British were ruling India and exactly that time only Churchill was the PM of Britain.
Dibakar's dig at the British Raj is very subtle and thus shouldn't cause a lot of troubles. Apart from this there is a lot of intrigue around the film that promises viewers to expect the unexpected. The film is set for release on April 3, 2015. We can't wait to watch this film, what about you BollywoodLifers?
