Storyline

Adwitiya[4] revolves around a young girl who is a student of medical science. Due to the sudden demise of Adwitiya's father she has to forgo her studies to take up a job in a rural bank in the districts of Sunderban at Komoltoli. Komoltoli is a village headed and manipulated by Chowdhury Zamindars namely Rabikiran Chowdhury and Chandrakiran Chowdhury. While all seems fine from outside in the village, but inside, there goes a series of political and malicious activities controlled by the Chowdhury brothers. The people of the village are victimised by these practices but no-one fears to voice against the ferocious brothers of the Chowdhury family.
