The film was one of the Zee Bangla films released on television.^[2]

Plot

Niladri and Suchismita live in Kolkata with their son Rayan. Kaustuv, a good natured young man who lives in the locality is a regular visitor to their house. Suchismita takes advantage of his good nature by regularly using him to run errands albeit ridiculing him for his simplicity. The story begins with Kaustav going to receive Nibedita who is coming in from Banglore. She is planning to go to USA for higher studies in Biochemistry

The story continues with the growing love-hate relationship between Kaustav and this family with Kaustav's down market simplistic attitude and his penchant of forgetting names and attempt to speak English in which he is quite below par. However, his love and knowledge of Kolkata and its heritage brings him closer to Nibetita. They get even more attached when Kaustav organises a trip to 'Dugdugi'. On returning from the 2 day weekend trip it is revealed that Kaustav is also a student of Biochemistry and has been trying to go to USA too, the only hindrance being the TOEFL and GRE tests which he couldn't clear due to his poor English. Mingling with Niladri and his family has helped him improve his English and thus clear the tests and get selected in Washington University.
