[1] An adaptation of Arthur Conan Doyle’s canon of Sherlock Holmes stories, the series is produced by BBC Studios Productions, and stars Kay Kay Menon, Ranvir Shorey, Rasika Dugal, Kirti Kulhari and Dibyendu Bhattacharya.
[7] The Times of India critic gave the series 3.5 stars, saying, “ ‘Shekhar Home,’ created by Aniruddha Guha and Sriijit Mukherji, and directed by Mukherji and Rohan Sippy, is a compelling series inspired by Arthur Conan Doyle's ‘Sherlock Holmes’.
The creators have excelled in crafting a world that captivates from the very first frame.”[8] In another 3.5 star-rated review, the India Today critic Trisha Bhattacharya said, “The screenplay is tight, with well-researched cases and dialogues that stay true to the spirit of Doyle's stories.
The Bengali representation is top-notch.”[9] In her review for Scroll, critic Nandini Ramnath said, “Breezy and irreverent, Shekhar Home's attitude is best captured by its high-performing hero's high-pitched giggle whenever a breakthrough occurs.
Menon's detective is brilliant without being overbearing, a genial class topper rather than an insufferable genius.”[10] The Livemint review called Shekhar Home a deft Conan Doyle adaptation.
