Writing

Chandril Bhattacharya formerly wrote the column "Uttam Madhyam" for Anandabazar Patrika on alternate Sundays, contributing to occasional op-eds in the same newspaper. His Uttam Madhyam pieces were collected as a book. Later, he began to air his views in the weekly Robbar Pratidin, in a column entitled "Du Chhokka Pnaach" ("two sixes and a five" - the highest score you can get in a single turn in the popular board game Ludo). In January 2011 his "Du Chhokka Pnaach" became bi-weekly. His satirical viewpoints addressed cultural phenomena, national and international current affairs, human psychology and social norms. He coins peculiar idioms, playful jargon, Spoonerisms and reconstructs colloquial Bengali phrases and expressions to formulate absurdist, humorous puns in most of his articles.
