Plot

Gupi is a small-time conman in love with Madhu, a pretty woman whom he met at a wedding he wasn't invited to. Into this picture enters six-year-old Osmita, who inexplicably believes Gupi to be her dad. And if this wasn't bad enough, Gupi becomes the object of a series of life-threatening attacks by a gang of criminals who seem to know something he doesn't.

While trying desperately to save his life and love, Gupi stumbles upon a deadly secret. A secret that will take him to a small town named Debgarh: A town terrorized by its ruthless MLA and the mafia he controls; a town whose inhabitants' only hope for redemption is Gupi.

Later, he learns that ACP Bikram Singha Roy, his look alike, is in danger from criminals.
