Abir joins college and comes across Pooja, the daughter of a ruthless businessman. Her father is strict and conservative in taking care of Pooja and does not tolerate if anyone, directly or indirectly, disturbs or approaches Pooja. Abir is bullied by a bunch of students and he pays them back in return by beating them all up. He also confronts her father's henchmen and makes them apologize when they misbehave with him before his fight with the students. Pooja is highly impressed on seeing this and she falls in love with him. He reciprocates and the two start dating. Pooja's father finds out about their relationship and opposes it. The rest of the story is how Abir and Pooja unite after a series of problems. It is revealed in the flashback that one of the classmates of Abir had spoken to Pooja which was seen by Kartik da, one of her father's henchmen. As a punishment, Kartik da had destroyed both of his eyes citing that even looking at Agnideb Sen's daughter is a crime. When Abir comes to know about this, he captures Kartik da in disguise and forcefully makes him donate his eyes to the classmate. Agnideb is furious at this and orders his henchmen to destroy Abir's house and threaten his parents of consequences if he is seen with Pooja again. Abir's father, who was always displeased with his son's casual nature, now supports him and tells that if he truly loves Pooja, he should go for her and don't worry about consequences. Agnideb leaves Pooja at his father-in-law's place but refuses to go himself as it is revealed he eloped and married Pooja's mom causing her father to pledge that he'd kill Agnideb if he sees him again. Abir manages to reach the place and convince Pooja's grandfather regarding the matter. Agnideb tries to cut off the marriage however, he is caught in many hilarious situations. When he reaches home, he finds that the marriage is on however, Abir approaches and tells him that he is his future father-in-law and that without his blessings, the marriage will not commence. Finally it is revealed that the mastermind behind Abir was Kartik da who used to pretend as if he is blind and take information from Agnideb about Pooja's whereabouts and report it to Abir. Kartik da tells that he got his eyes back from the same classmate's father who had died and Abir himself arranged for the eyes to be donated to him. This made Kartik da realise the importance of eyes and feels sorry for what he had done earlier. He teams up with Abir and tells him that he'd do anything to pay for the sins he committed. Agnideb finally realises his mistake and happily accepts Abir as his son-in-law and is seen playing with his grandson after the credits roll.
