Plot
Amar Mallick and Shibnath Roy Choudhury are business partners. While Amar is honest, Shibnath is dishonest. The latter depends on the advice of the beguiling advocate J. B. Ganguly but fears Amar's wrath since he knows that Amar may turn hostile at him if he ever discovers his illegal practice. Ganguly advised Shibnath to get Debu, the elder son of the latter married to Sanjukta, the only daughter of Amar. Shibnath believes that Amar will never turn hostile if a connubial relationship is formed between them. Debu and Sanjukta marry but Shibnath's perception turns out erroneous when Amar again threatens him against his illegal practice. He seeks help from Ganguly and the latter gets Amar assassinated by his concubine Monika. Shibnath sells the colony of the workers of his factory to a promoter named Jalan. Jaya, the daughter of Subal who is a worker at the factory implores Bishwanath Roy Choudhury, the younger son of Shibnath Roy Choudhury to restrain Jalan from embezzling the colony. Bishwanath meets Jalan and succeeds to change Jalan's mind. Bishwanath visits J. B. Ganguly and tells him that he suspects him to the assassinator of Amar. Ganguly instructs Monika to get Bishwanath assassinated. Ganguly's daughter Mithu who is in love with Bishwanath overhears this. She rushes to Bishwanath and warms him against her father. This is overheard by Shibnath who at once goes to Ganguly's place and shoots him.
