Plot

In 1961, Galib Bin Gani, later known as Toofan, is born under tragic circumstances as his mother dies during childbirth. By 1974, in the village of Alokdiya Gram, his father Goni Miah stands up to Shehnawaz, a notorious land raider. Shehnawaz retaliates by killing Goni Miah, prompting the young Toofan to avenge his father's death by decapitating Shehnawaz, which leads to his arrest. Recognizing his potential, influential gangster Bashir bribes the authorities to release Galib and takes him under his wing. Eventually, Galib, now Toofan, betrays Bashir by killing him and aligns with Bashir's rival, only to poison him later.

Ambitious for power and wealth, Toofan is advised to enter politics. His advisor arranges a meeting with a top political party and their affiliated "dons." However, feeling disrespected as a mere village gangster, Toofan kills everyone at the party using a XM214 Microgun, gaining nationwide notoriety. He subsequently funds and supports the Janata Party, a third-rate political faction, which wins the election. However, Toofan's reckless influence disrupts society.

In 1994, aspiring actor Shanto loses a role in the film "Pagla Badshah" for being more attractive than the lead actor. Julie, the costume designer, feeling guilty, secures him a role as a corpse, but Shanto is disheartened. During filming, when Julie tries to intervene in a local dispute involving Hero Raj, Shanto defends her and impresses action director Rocky, who casts him as the second villain in an upcoming movie. Suchona, the lead actress and Toofan’s love interest, recognizes Shanto's resemblance to Toofan and removes his scenes. Heartbroken, Shanto contemplates suicide but is kidnapped by Toofan's henchmen. Toofan gives Shanto two months to emulate him.

Meanwhile, Home Minister Ariffin assigns Assistant Commissioner Akram to eliminate Toofan. Akram captures Toofan’s foster father and advisor, Jalaluddin, who divulges crucial information. Though Toofan rescues Jalaluddin, he is furious at the betrayal and kills him. Desperate, Toofan forces Suchona to reveal Shanto's location, passing him off as himself. Seeking to escape Toofan's violent grasp, Suchona discloses Toofan's actual location to Akram, who subsequently kills the real Toofan.

Shanto, now a famous actor, continues his life. In the end credits, it is revealed that Akram did not actually kill Toofan, who is shown recovering in secrecy.
