Mastan (Bengali: মস্তান) is a Bengali thriller movie released in 2004, directed by Rabi Kinagi. The movie featured Jeet, Swastika Mukherjee, Hara Patnaik and Mihir Das. It was dubbed as Suna Sankhali in Odia. Despite being an unofficial remake of the 1999 Bollywood film Jaanwar,[1] it had some of the plot elements from the 1996 Bollywood film Jeet.
Plot
[edit]The film revolves around the life of Raju, a poor boy whose mother dies of starvation. He is taken under the fold by the local smuggler Bhanupratap. He grows up to become an antisocial and an associate of the smuggler. However, he decides to sever ties with the underworld after he falls in love with Mamata. But his past becomes a barrier as Mamata's father learns of their relationship. Ultimately Mamata is forced to marry Avinash, a CBI officer after her father suffers a heart attack. This transforms Raju into a ruthless criminal. Meanwhile, Avinash, the husband of Mamata, comes to town. He disrupts and puts a stop to Bhanupratap's smuggling business and he sends Raju to kill him. But Raju confronts Mamata who begs him to spare Avinash's life. Raju asks them to leave the city. The train Mamata was travelling gets involved in an accident. They lose their child. Raju leaves the underworld (as he could not kill Avinash) and finds the child.
