In Feluda on Feluda: a letter to Topshe, Rochona Majumdar discusses how Ray develops a private investigator, “a middle-class man who was not bourgeois” and remains completely indifferent to material benefits. epitomised an ideal of modern Indian citizenship... a modern man who did not seek to reproduce himself through family and property” The Bengali love for travel didn’t spare Feluda, Topshe, and Jatayu, and the “three musketeers” travel far and wide to solve a range of cases – from Darjeeling, Gangtok, Jaisalmer, and Lucknow, to Shimla, Varanasi, Mumbai, and London.
