 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Feluda refers to a series of novels and short stories written by the Bengali jack-of-all-trades Satyajit Ray. Since he was a huge fan of Sherlock Holmes, Ray wanted to create his own version of the character in an Indian context.The eponymous Feluda (real name: Pradosh Chandra Mitter) is a Sherlock Homage of the highest order, a tall, lean, athletic detective who seeks out challenging cases and has a spotless track record. He is assisted by Topshe (real name: Tapesh Ranjan), his young cousin who also serves as his chronicler and right-hand man. They are later joined by the bumbling Jatayu (real name: Lalmohan Ganguli) a middle-aged writer of cheap thrillers who serves primarily as comic relief.Throughout their adventures, the trio not only visit every part of India (from Madras to Kashmir) but also various foreign locations, including Hong Kong, London and Nepal, to name a few.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

 Arch-Enemy: Maganlal Meghraj, the Moriarty to Feluda's Holmes. Much like the original, he only appears in a few of the stories but all the protagonists are unanimous in that he was the worst opponent they had faced.

 Bad Liar: Jatayu. Even the villains call him out on it.

 Butt-Monkey: If anything embarrassing has to happen to our heroes, it is always Jatayu it happens to. Specially invoked by Meghraj, who delights in forcing Jatayu into terrifying or humiliating situations whenever he has them in his power.

 Affably Evil: Most criminals tend to be friendly and personable, aside from the hired goons. Especially so with Meghraj.

 Amateur Sleuth: Jatayu and Topshe occasionally fancy themselves as this, and act on their own in Feluda's absence. Most of the time, they just tend to make reckless and unplanned moves. They might come across valuable information, but rarely realize its importance until Feluda points it out.
