The Eken teaser: Anirban Chakrabarti's sleuth gets serious

Popular detective Eken Babu, the main character from the eponymous Hoichoi series, is coming to the big screen.

The teaser of the upcoming film, directed by Joydeep Mukherjee, reveals glimpses of the detective solving a murder mystery somewhere in the hills.

Unlike many of the suave sleuths, Anirban Chakrabarti's Eken Babu is a comical character with a passion for food. However, in the teaser, he appears to be quite seriously invested in an investigation, along with his two companions, played by Suhotra Mukhopadhyay and Somak Ghosh.

The teaser doesn’t give many hints regarding the storyline. However, it appears that Eken and his companions bump into certain suspicious characters while vacationing in the hills. The teaser ends on a tense note.

Also starring Paayel Sarkar and Debasish Mondal, The Eken will be released in theatres on 14 April.

Check out the teaser below and let us know if you are keen on watching the film.
