Plot

Biresh Bose (Subrat Dutta) works in a finance company IIDB as an investigating officer who prepares the investigation reports on which the loans are sanctioned. The company has provided him a pick up and drop car and he gets a handsome salary. At heart, he is a bohemian with no rigid values in life. He is a regular drinker. He visits the bar every evening. One such evening at the bar he meets Nita, a high-society call girl Nita (Tannishtha Chatterjee), with whom he is caught in a psycho-sexual relationship. After that Biresh starts visiting Nita’s apartment regularly and gradually he started feeling peculiar attraction for Nita. Biresh has a friend name Hiren(Shiladitya Patronobish), who is a painter. He lives in with his model Iti (Payel Sarkar). One evening Hiren takes Biresh to Sonagachi brothel, the infamous red-light area of Calcutta. There Biresh comes to know that Hiren was a regular visitor of that area. He gets attracted towards Iti.

In his office, his position becomes bleak as he refuses a loan to an influential person, Haralal Bhattacharya (Kunal Mitra), an NRI who applied for loan in Biresh’s company. Biresh while investigating found that Haralal’s claim was false. So in his report, he stated that Haralal is not eligible for any loan. That ultimately creates problems in Biresh’s life. Being an NRI, Haralal had an enormous connection in the upper level. So Biresh was asked by his superiors to change his investigation report, so that Haralal could get the loan. One day Iti visits Biresh’s office and tells him that Hiren has left her. She needs Biresh’s help. Biresh came to know that Haralal was a regular visitor to Nita’s place those days. Biresh finds Haralal in disturbing not only his office life but also his personal life. Biresh, in a bout of self-destruction, vents his anger and frustration by strangling Nita and stages his alibi through Iti. The police start investigating but are unable to establish any motive behind the killing. Police investigator (Sabyasachi Chakraborty) suspects him but cannot not prove him guilty. Iti tells the police that when Nita was killed Biresh was in her apartment the whole night. Everybody starts believing that Haralal might killed Nita. Biresh’s company decided that not to give loan to Haralal. Life become smooth for Biresh again, but Nita still haunts him. So one day he calls the police and confesses about the murder of Nita.
