Learn more- 1956. Satyavati (Sukanya Kulkarni) wants to go to Kashmir with Byomkesh, but he doesn't have the money. Satyakam Das (Raju Shrestha) gives Rs 1000 advance to Byomkesh so that he can investigate his death. He is a partner in Suchitra emporium, with his father Usha Nath (Devendra Khandelwal). The emporium was set up by Satyakam's maternal grandfather, who made Usha Nath partner & upon his death, gave his own share to Satyakam. He is prone to drinking and womanizing. Byomkesh visits Satyakam's colony & finds that locals have already decided to give him a good thrashing due to his womanizing ways, due to which women in the society feel insecure. Soon enough Satyakam is found dead.
Byomkesh meets Satyakam's father Usha Nath, who tells Byomkesh that Satyakam lived in the ground floor room of his house, which also housed Usha Nath, his wife, nephew and niece (who moved in a year ago), and Sahdeb (Khalid Mohammed) (the house servant). On the night of Satyakam's death, Usha heard a noise at 1 am, and went to his balcony to investigate, that's when he heard Sahdeb shouting. He went down to see Satyakam lying outside the house with a bullet in his back. Satyakam always came late and Sahdeb would always open the door for him, but this time the noise on the door was louder, and when Sahdeb opened the door, Satyakam was dead. Satyakam's room door was locked by himself.
The Niece, Chumki (Richi Sharma), says that she keeps her room door locked at night & was woken up by her brother when he knocked on the front door of the house. Satyakam's mother is very hostile to Byomkesh and doesn't want him interfering in house affairs. While exiting the house, Byomkesh notices a hole in the bottom of the front door, which has been hastily covered with cigarette foil. The Post-Mortem report indicates the bullet entered the body from an angle from below, pierced the lungs and got stuck in the ribs. Byomkesh is perplexed that Satyakam was shot at by somebody who was hiding in the bushes. For this person, it would have been very easy to shoot Satyakam, when he walked from the main gate to the front door of the house. Why did this hidden person wait till Satyakam reached the front door, when the probability of hitting Satyakam would have reduced substantially.
Byomkesh speaks to the nephew, Sitanshu (Naved Aslam), who is also very curt. He reports that there are 2 exits from the house, front and back door. His own room is next to the back door, and he heard no one exit the house from the back that night. He was not very fond of Satyakam. Byomkesh senses that Satyakam was basically trying to have sex with Chumki & Sitanshu was appalled at Satyakam's guts. He had warned Satyakam of the consequences if he touched Chumki. Sitanshu also reveals that Usha Nath is not on talking terms with his wife.
Byomkesh figures that Usha Nath was married to his wife in Feb 1935 and Satyakam was born in Aug 1935. Ergo, Satyakam is not Usha's son & ergo he was never on speaking terms with Satyakam or his mother. Usha killed Satyakam. Usha Nath was a salesman in Suchitra Emporium in 1933. He felt very lucky to be invited by Satyakam's maternal grandfather to marry his daughter. The marriage took place in 1935 Feb. One the very first night, Usha realized that his wife is already preggers. Usha confronted his father-in-law who made him equal partner in Suchitra emporium. Usha could not refuse this offer, but never had any relations with his wife.
As Satyakam's incidents of forced sex grew, including his designs on Chumki, Usha decided to remove him. He stuck the cigarette wrapper at the bottom of the front door. As Satyakam came home, he saw the wrapper and bent down. Usha shot him from the balcony, so that angel looked like Satyakam had been shot from behind, and the bullet going to the front of his body. This way nobody would suspect that the shot came from the balcony. Usha retires from public life, hands over the business to Sitanshu (whom he considers a Vansh Ka Khoon) and asks Byomkesh to not reveal his story to anyone.
