Plot

[edit]

Jeetendra Ghosh or Jeet (Jeet) is a student whose family, consisting of his parents and elder sister Devashree Ghosh (Locket Chatterjee), migrated to the city Kolkata. Since their arrival, they have to struggle amongst the crowd to exist. People of Kolkata fear Vishnu (Ashish Vidyarthi), the local don. His younger brother Deva (Rishi Kaushik) studies in the same college as that of Jeet. Deva's gang in the college are the biggest troublemakers, who tease girls and pass bad comments at them. Jeet, who tries to handle the situation, clashes with Deva's gang for a number of times and beats his gang members. In retaliation, Vishnu's goons start attacking his family members and friends. One day they spot Debashree on the road and assaults her. They rape her one by one in public. Police started investigating, and an Inspector named Ronojoy (Rajesh Sharma) was assigned, and he sought to punish the wrongdoers, but he wasn't able to punish them as Vishnu and his gang were too much powerful and had many politicians support. They also kill his college friend Iqbal (Biswanath Basu) for standing against Vishnu in elections. Jeet, in a fit of rage, killed Vishnu's younger brother Deva inside a car, strangulating his neck with a copper wire to avenge his friend Iqbal's death. Vishnu couldn't bear the loss of his so loving brother, infuriated and disturbingly killed Jeet's father Sridhar Ghosh (Bodhisatwa Majumdar). A helpless and heartbroken Jeet is left with nothing, but only a strong desire to punish the wrongdoers. He becomes determined to kill Vishnu. In the end, Jeet is successful in killing Vishnu, thus fulfilling his revenge.
