Huge letdown. How can someone who claims he is a big fan of the original story make so many drastic changes to the story, especially the climax? And also claiming he tried to be true to the source material. Srijit Mukherji is lately doing so many works that all his works aren't up to the mark. He should focus on quality rather than quantity. For a 6-episode series, it feels slow, and sometimes some scenes feel unnecessary (especially the opening Chiriyakhana scene, taking a jab at the Byomkesh wearing specs for the celluloid). It could have been a four-episode series like Pinjrapol. Performance-wise, except for Anirban, none were memorable. Sohini was a better match for Abir and Riddhima for Anirban. Sohini at times felt more "nyaka" than the recent performance of Rukmini in Satyabati. Rahul was okay-ish. The cinematography is quite good considering it's a web series, but sometimes the production value feels cheap. Overall, the weakest Byomkesh web series, Anirban, might be the best Byomkesh, but Dev's recent Durgo Rohosso had much better execution and experience overall.
