Mamon. Binay, his colleague from the department, happens to be his best friend. Binay secretly envies Abani, as the whole department, including their top boss
Mr Banerjee
, depends a lot on him. Abani had a happy and luxurious life, till one day he was offered bribe in front of Mamon. Abani, who’s like a hero in the eyes of her daughter, puts up and honest face and refuses the bribe. “However, this incident was actually a sting operation carried out by a media company. They publish the video, and Abani’s act of honesty becomes an overnight sensation. People from all quarters start praising him. Though unintended, this development moves Abani.
