Plot summary
Badur Bagan is a locality in North Kolkata. Beside the locality is a place named Muchi Bagan. Muchi Bagan looks exactly the same as North Kolkata, with old houses filled with big windows, wide ground floor balcony for chit chat and gossips, narrow streets, by lanes and so on.
And in this same locality our story's main character Anadi Chakraborty resides by paying only the sum of 50 INR as monthly rent. He is an upper class Brahmin. By not following his ancestor's footsteps and going to the same profession of being Hindu priests, he chooses to be a proofreader of an elite publication in College Street named Basanta Bilap, occupying the role of a senior proof reader there.
Though Anadi is a typical dedicated honest responsible simple man then also because of his single flaw, he gets bad treatment everywhere starting from his wife to boss in his office.
He often forgets things, and that is his flaw. For example, if his wife Nilima asked him to bring fish from the market, he brings green vegetables while returning. This absent mindedness continues in the office as well, and he often gets scolding from Paranpriyo, the manager. "You will soon lose your job, Anadi."
He himself used to stay very tensed regarding this job, he used to mumur "maybe I will lose this job."
He has a son named Shibu Chakraborty, who is jobless spoilt brat. All of a sudden he falls for Radhika. However, the smart beautiful Radhika does not give a shit about it; she was not at all interested.
Radhika used to come to Muchi Bagan for Bengali tuition to Dimpida. Dimpida is bit different from the rest, bit feminine from inside. When he used to be in his college days, he was impressed by the character of Rishi Kapoor in the film named Sagar and started imagining himself as Dimple Kapadia.
