Plot
[edit]Nilkanta Roy is a revered person in the village situated that he resides in North Bengal. His daughters Kabita and Nandini (Srabanti Chatterjee), are more than anything for him in the world. Kabita loves a native called Ajoy, with whom she elopes to Digha on the night of her arranged marriage ceremony. Nilakanta's younger brother Bikash suspects that Ajoy's friends are involved in this incident. Raju, one of the closest friend of Ajoy, who resides in the same village, gets interrogated brutally about the whereabouts of Ajoy's companions. He reveals that three more people, Abir Chatterjee from Kolkata, Shankar Ghosh from Howrah, Arun Das from Haldia and Subhas Saha from Burdwan, also may have helped the couple elope. By mistaken reference of initials in the names, Subhas Basu was kidnapped from Burdwan, while the original man was left untouched and Arun couldn't be caught from Haldia as he was out of town that time. In Kolkata, a drunk Abir is kidnapped at night near his house, who is notoriously known for being a nomad and an expert in escaping. They are imprisoned at a small penthouse in Nilkanta's residence, and all of them plan to escape the next early morning by catching a train to Kolkata. While all others almost approach the train the next morning, Abir stops when he sees Nandini at the village temple situated in the mid-forest and falls in love with her, though she is unaware of his presence. They all are kidnapped yet again by Nilakanta's men and are imprisoned at that penthouse. Its doors remain locked, and only three windows are there where a man can see the entrance door of the main house and the nearby flooring and parking area. While his friends are horrified, Abir is not influenced by the fact that he is in love with a village native and on eloping with her, all of them have to face big trouble from the villagers. Meanwhile, Nandini tries to speak with them with an intention to find out details about Kabita, and neither Abir nor his friends can see her face because of the penthouse's style of construction.
He asks her to help him find his love and, in return promises her to tell details about Nandini's whereabouts. The added advantage to Abir is a set of love letters received by Kabita from Ajoy, which are presently in his custody, and Nandini is hell bent recovering them back. Meanwhile, Arun is caught red-handed from Haldia, who, after execution of brutal force by Nilakanta's men, reveals that the couple is in Digha. There Abir manages to send the couple to Kolkata without the knowledge of Nilakanta's henchmen and later at the penthouse, he reveals he is the mastermind behind the act of Kabita eloping with Ajoy, which is heard by Nandini, who hid there to steal the set of love letters and escaped through the back door. She burns up all the letters and reveals all the facts she heard in the penthouse to her maid-servant. All on a sudden, to her surprise, Nandini's uncle Bikash appears there and listens all of these. Because of her, the truth is revealed, and Abir too, finds out that his love is none other than Nandini. When Abir and his friends are brutally tortured, he speaks the truth that the couple are in Kolkata to save his friends. He also reveals that they will marry the next day at temple. Nilkanta, Bikash, Nandini, and others go to Kolkata including Abir and his friends. All of them start searching for the couple at the temple, but when they leaves the place, Kabita and Ajoy reaches there. They did not draw attention of Nilkanta and others. Eventually Abir earns the trust of Nilkanta, his henchmen, and Nandini by saving her from a bunch of goons who try to molest her, and she slowly starts reciprocating his love, though never confesses it. Abir suggests Nilkanta and the others to stay at his home and tells everything to his mother. Abir begins to realise the pain faced by Nilkanta because of Kabita's wrongdoings. The next day, Nilkanta and Abir manage to catch Kabita and Ajoy red-handed at the Prinsep Ghat, and there, Kabita revolts against her father addressing him as a 'chasing dog' in front of everyone and threatens to file a police case on him. In dejection, Nilkanta leaves the place and Abir watches on. During the day of their return to North Bengal, everyone parts ways with Nilkanta apologising to Abir and his friends, and invites them to Nandini's marriage. Nandini stares at Abir, waiting to confess her love, though Abir stands like a statue there till the car leaves for North Bengal.
Seeing his son leading a lazy, dull and unexcited life against the way he lived makes Abir's mother sends him away to bring Nandini as his wife. With Shankar, Subhas, Arun and Raju pressurising him, Abir goes with his friends to attend the marriage. While Nilkanta is afraid Nandini would elope with Abir this night, Abir confronts Nilkanta, confesses his love for Nandini, and assures he would not elope with her. Then Abir decides to go back to Kolkata and reaches the railway station. To his surprise, he meets Nilkanta and Nandini on the platform. Realizing that Nandini's happiness lies in Abir's company, he lets the lovers unite that night. The couple takes blessings from Nilkanta and the film ends.
