Fyatarur Bombachak O Anyanya

I don’t know in which category I’ll classify this book dedicated on the exploits of people belonging to the order of Fyataru. Is it comedy? Is it satire? Is it a vulgar reminder to devulgarise (this is not proper grammar, but who cares when I’m describing Fyataru) our society? I really don’t know how I’ll categorize the magic realism created by Nabarun Bhattacharya but it's a real winner for the lonely souls. In the opening narrative Fyataru, a senior Fyataru Madan recruits a newcomer whom he designates DS, in honour of his favourite brand of alcohol. He teaches him to fly by chanting “Fyat Fyat Sai Sai” and teaches him the principle of the organization – to create chaos wherever possible. DS reunites with his estranged wife in Fyatarur Bombachak who had previously eloped with his client. In Boimelae Fyataru, the duo steals books from Bookfair taking advantage of the fire and creates panic among the security as they flies off with the loot. Quite contrastingly in Subhobibahe Fyataru, they stop a corrupt businessman to get his son wedded a second time after killing his first wife. In Biswacape Fyataru the pair enjoys relaxing moments watching the world cup final in the colour television snitched from a rich man's house for just a few hours and returned it after the match thus creating more confusion in the process. In the vulgarly humorous Rabindrajayanti (Aqua)-te Fyataru the revenge against insult on a Fyataru’s work of art is being taken one year after in the most comical fashion possible. Though Purandar Bhat (is Bhat an abbreviated edition of Bhattacharya) appears in the story but his induction in the Fyataru gang is depicted in the following tale Kavi Sammelane Fyataru. In Bangla Sahitye Fyatarur Abadan the Fyatarus save an author from denouncing alcoholism. The author reappears in Fasion Parade Fyataru where he seeks help of Fyataru who succeeds in avoiding possible elopement of his wife. Embarrassing situations continue in Sadhu Samagame Fyataru where they cause immense trouble at the country’s capital. The final is how Fyatarus create global terror in Global Terror O Fyataru where international panic is created by them.

Thus the Fyataru organization proves their mettle in all of their exploits and though vulgar and coarse languages abound but it provides guilty pleasure for sure. Its parallel can only be Tenida and Charmurti but the version is contrastingy vulgar.
