Ghanada is probably Premendra Mitra’s most remarkable creation. The first Ghanada story appeared in 1945, in Alpana, a Puja annual. The story was “Mosquito” (Mosha), which initiated the legendary Ghanada and the mess-bari (boarding house) at 72 Banamali Naskar Lane, Kolkata.

“The stories combined science, travel, adventure, and fantasy, making them unique in Bengali fiction. ‘Fantasy’ is a dangerous word to use, though in spite of Ghanada becoming synonymous with tall tales, there is little in the stories that do not stand up to the test of reasons or facts (Scientific, Geographical, World events etc. After you finish a story, you will wonder how much you learned about the world that you had no idea.”
