He starts drinking heavily and starts visiting Sonagachi, the infamous red-light area of Calcutta with his painter friend Hiren (Shiladitya Patranobish). He also gets attracted towards a model, Iti (Payel Sarkar). Biresh, in a bout of self-destruction, vents his anger and frustration by strangling Nita, and stages his alibi through Iti.
