Ashim Datta, hired as an assistant manager in a mill, finds himself faced with a corrupt manager and an irresponsible staff. In an attempt to right things, he sacks a female employee, Juri Barua, for having lost an important file which, it turns out, had been destroyed by another staffer, Sunita. Attempting to right things, Ashim discovers that Juri has a personal/sexual relationship with the manager, knowledge which leads to him being charged with the manager’s death. Later when Juri learns of all that has happened, she searches for Ashim in an effort to apologise, but finds him dead in a hospital. Technically sound attempt at a commercial film by a director trained at the Film & Television Institute of India, Pune.
