~~~~FELUDA E-BOOKS ~~~~
Feluda, or Prodosh Chandra Mitra, who uses the anglicised
name Pradosh C. Mitter, is a fictional private investigator starring in a
series of Bengali novels and short stories written by Indian Bengali film
director and writer Satyajit Ray. The detective lives at Rajani Sen Road,
Ballygunge, Kolkata, West Bengal, India. Feluda first made his appearance in a
Bengali children’s magazine called Sandesh in 1965, under the editorialship of
Satyajit Ray and Subhas Mukhopadhyay. His first adventure was Feludar Goendagiri.
Feluda is always accompanied by his cousin Topesh
(ironically called Topshe by Feluda), and from the sixth story, Sonar Kella
(The Golden Fortress), by a popular thriller writer Jatayu (Lalmohon Ganguli).
Prodosh Chandra Mitter, popularly known by his nickname
Feluda, first appeared in the eponymous short story Feludar Goyendagiri
(Feluda's Investigation) in 1965. The story was published in Sandesh, a
children's periodical founded by Ray's grandfather, Upendrakishore Ray and
edited by Ray himself. In the Feluda series that followed, Feluda was portrayed
as a man of around 27 with a tall (6'2"), athletic figure. Despite being a
strongly built man adept in martial arts, Feluda relies mostly upon his superb
analytical ability and observation skill (jokingly referred to as the
'Magajastra' or brain-weapon) to solve cases instead of using physical strength
or weapons. He is very choosy about taking up cases and prefers cases that
require cerebral effort. He possesses a .32 Colt revolver, but the weapon is
used very infrequently and mostly for non-violent purposes. However,
contemporary (2000's) movies based on Feluda stories feature scenes of violence
uncharacteristic of the series, where Feluda demonstrates his martial art
prowess. Feluda is known to be a good sleight-of-hand and he put that skill to
use for solving couple of cases. He is also good at disguises.
