Sharadindu Bandyopadhyay (Bangla: শরদিন্দু বন্দোপাধ্যায়) (30 March 1899 – 22 September 1970) was a well known literary figure of Bengal. He was also actively involved with Bengali cinema as well as Bollywood. One of his immortal creations is the fictional detective Byomkesh Bakshi. Later he shifted to Pune. Sharadindu Bandopadhyay wrote different forms of prose: novels, short stories, plays and screenplays. However, his forte was short stories and novels. To aficionados of his writings, his historical fictions like kaaler mandiraa, gouRo mollar (initially named as Mouri Nodir tirey), tumi sandhyara megh, tungabhadraar teere (all novels), chua-chandan, maru o sangha (later made into a Hindi film named Trishangni) and stories of the unnatural with the recurring character Barada score high points. Shradindu's writing was well researched, mellifluous, humorous and full of insights into human nature and contemporary urban Bengali society.
