They have been sleuthing for more than a 100 years - in Mughal courts and in Rajput palaces, in the crooked by lanes of Benaras and the bustling cities of Calcutta and Bombay, in the tea gardens of Darjeeling, in the deserts of Rajasthan. Sometimes dressed in dhotis and sherwanis, and sometimes in salwar kurtas and nine-yard sarees. 

These are the desi detectives. 

After all, who says a deerstalker is a must for solving crime? A turban would do just as well.

Welcome to the desi detective show - the podcast that explores the history and the mystery behind  the best detective stories from the Indian subcontinent.
