	~~==Plot synopsis==~~
	Arko was an excellent cricketer. He was an aspiring bowler and wanted to pursue his career in cricket. However, a torn ligament in his leg put an end to all his dreams. He tried his luck in various other jobs, but all in vain. Frustration and depression continued to haunt him down, only to be relieved by the birth of his son Babai. While Arko stayed at home and took care of Babai, his wife Riya went out to work. On the other hand, Kartik Mondol is a poor bus driver who lives in a slum with his mother and wife and drives the buses of bus owner Madan Patra. Swapan Chakraborty is an honest insurance investigator who lives with his dumb father and his daughter.

	One early morning, while Babai was going to school, an accident occurs. Kartik's bus fails to apply the brakes at a road crossing and runs over little Babai, killing him. Arko's life is shattered. Though Kartik is arrested, he is only a scapegoat to the greater negligence of the bus owners, the testing centres and the corporate giant Axle Motors. Swapan, on his investigations, finds that the bus itself was a defective model. After obtaining bail, Kartik teams up with Arko and Swapan. Their protest, overcoming all difficulties, constitutes the main plot of the movie.

==Plot synopsis==
Arko was an excellent cricketer. He was an aspiring bowler and wanted to pursue his career in cricket. However, a torn ligament in his leg put an end to all his dreams. He tried his luck in various other jobs, but all in vain. Frustration and depression continued to haunt him down, only to be relieved by the birth of his son Babai. While Arko stayed at home and took care of Babai, his wife Riya went out to work. On the other hand, Kartik Mondol is a poor bus driver who lives in a slum with his mother and wife and drives the buses of bus owner Madan Patra. Swapan Chakraborty is an honest insurance investigator who lives with his dumb father and his daughter.

One early morning, while Babai was going to school, an accident occurs. Kartik's bus fails to apply the brakes at a road crossing and runs over little Babai, killing him. Arko's life is shattered. Though Kartik is arrested, he is only a scapegoat to the greater negligence of the bus owners, the testing centres and the corporate giant Axle Motors. Swapan, on his investigations, finds that the bus itself was a defective model. After obtaining bail, Kartik teams up with Arko and Swapan. Their protest, overcoming all difficulties, constitutes the main plot of the movie.
