Pradosh C. Mitter AKA Feluda, Topshe, and Lalmohan Ganguly go to Puri for vacation. One evening, the trio spot odd footprints on the sand. Later, Lalmohan goes to meet Lakshman, an astrologer who is presumably gifted with extrasensory perception. Soon they stumble upon Roopchand's dead body lying on the beach. Feluda figures out the mystery and gathers everyone at Bhujanga Niwas and tells everyone that Bilas Majumdar is actually Animesh Kumar Sarkar, a smuggler by profession. Feluda tells them that the actual Bilas Majumdar had died three weeks ago in a hospital in Nepal. Why?

Lalmohan Ganguly, alias Jatayu − a sidekick of Feluda − gets invited to Mumbai (previously Bombay) to watch the shooting of a film based on a novel written by him. Once in Mumbai, he, along with Feluda and Topshe gets embroiled with underworld kingpins. He seems to have transported the Nana Sahib's necklace. But fortunately because of Feluda the real thief is caught and convicted. Although the original story was written in the 1970s, the movie is set in more recent times and depict the real problem of underworld involvement in Bollywood.
