The rich Sumon and poor Sumi Chowdhury are two class friends from childhood, and immediately fall in love. Farha, his other childhood friend and the only daughter of his father's affluent friend and co-partner also loves Sumon but Sumon thinks of her as just a friend. Sumon's parents and Farha's father fix their marriage which excites her more. Sumon immediately rejects it because he loves Sumi. When he tells Farha this, she becomes very heartbroken and jealous and vows to break them up. However, this further complicates the love triangle to the point that Sumon loses his memory in an accident by Farha's father's goons. Sumon's mother then dies of shock because of his memory loss.
