Mishor Rahasya

From the day I heard that Srijit is going to make a movie based on this novel, I was determined to read it before watching the movie. So as I read it the most part of my imagination was filled with Prasenjit as Kakababu but it was difficult to think Aryan as Sontu. Well that partof Aryan as Sontu can be enjoyed in the movie itself but Prosenjit as depicted in the publicity stills in various magazines seem to fit quite aptly wiht the plot. Animation of it had already been made and now it remains to be seen how the movie fares.

Kakababu, in this adventure to Egypt, sets off on a curious trail of heiroglyphics jotted down in a trance by an illiterate yet powerful revolutionery turned mystic. Kakababu seem to understand the symbols but is reluctant to divulge the secret due to his principles. Danger lurks in every corner as a race begins between mercenaries with Sontu and his uncle facing the wrath of it. In the desert of Egypt, surrounded by the legendary tombs, the climax inside the pyramid and the final twist makes this one of the most exciting stories of the Kakababu series. Other characters like Narendra Verma, Siddhartha, Rini, Bimanda had been introduced but remains quite obscured due to the prominence of the key figures.
