Plot

[edit ]

Surya (Jeet) is a sportsman. He loves to run and win championships in Kolkata but is criticized for being short-tempered by his father. Once on a championship tour, he goes to Siliguri. There he runs into an influential gang leader Indrajit ruling over the entire North Bengal (Subrat Dutta), who forcefully tries to make Sumi (Barsha Priyadarshini) his wife. After some struggle and fights, Surya can escape from Siliguri with Sumi. After coming to his home in Kolkata, Surya hides Sumi from his family members. He attempts to arrange for Sumi's departure to the US where her relatives reside. Indrajit and his goons arrive in Kolkata in search of Sumi. They use their political and social influence on the local police who lock up Surya. Eventually, Surya makes the police officer understand that he loves Sumi and he lets him go since the police officer is an old friend of Surya's father (Deepankar De). Surya arrives to get Sumi back from Indrajit's house. Meanwhile, Indrajit's goons go to Surya's home and kidnap Surya's sister. Surya eventually fights after his father permits him to fight for a good cause. Indrajit dies by his mother during the fight coincidentally.
