Deepa who plays the lead role, is the star of the evening, but expresses no joy despite the audience's approval.

Nripati Laha, the founder member of the group, and Deepa's brother Vijay look forward to the wedding as they both have much to gain from this alliance.

Nripati hopes to get a solid sponsorship for the Swapnochari through Debashis's ‘Bhatta Group of Industries’.

Debashis is already enchanted by his beautiful bride; the only thing that bothers him is the sullen expression on her face.

When he tries to pull her into his arms after they are alone in their flower-bedecked bedroom that night, she draws back and informs him that she is in love with someone else.

Debashis takes some time to digest this, but eventually offers to give her a divorce so that she can marry the man she loves.

The sky is strangely dark and, just before the murder, crows gather inexplicably on the overhead wires and railings of the nearby park as if in foreboding of something evil.

As Byomkesh tells his dear friend and assistant Ajit of the incident and rues the fact that killers of Kolkata are becoming creative these days, footsteps are heard on the staircase outside followed by the ringing of the doorbell.

Byomkesh tells Vijay that his job is not to look for secret lovers of women especially since in this case, Deepa is in no way to blame for a marriage that has been forced upon her.

Coincidentally, the DC DD of Kolkata police has just rung him up to solicit his help in solving the strange case of the porcupine quill murder.

When she opens it, she finds a beautiful pair of designer earrings made of some strange horn like substance.

In fact, the strange marriage and even stranger murders play themselves out like unconnected tracks running parallel to each other.

Moreover, Dhritiman's Byomkesh is quite far removed from the character we know, speaking English with a British accent and effecting theatrical expressions and dramatic entrances.

The film is touted as a thriller, but thanks to the poor editing there is little of that thrill left by the time the end credits roll.
