Synopsis

Simon Bubumba, the brother of President Bubumba of the small African state of Murundi, is kidnapped. Kakababu (Sabyasachi Chakrabarty) and Shontu (Soham Chakraborty) search for the missing diplomat. They also find the thief who had stolen a stone collected from the moon's surface by U.S. Astronauts.

Plot

A few precious pieces of moon stones have been brought by American astronauts from the moon to be exhibited in museums all over the world. One such moon stone gets stolen from the Indian Museum, Kolkata. At the same time, Simon Bubumba, brother of President Bubumba of the African state of Murundi, who has come to India on diplomatic reasons, gets kidnapped from his guest house. Raja Roy Chowdhury a.k.a Kakababu is requested by his friend, CBI official Narendra Verma, to go to Major Thakur Singh, a powerful and wealthy lord of a village in the forests of Daltonganj, as he is suspected of kidnapping Simon Bubumba in demand of heavy ransom. Kakababu's nephew Santu and Santu's friend Jojo accompany him on this adventure. After a series of attacks and counterattacks, Kakababu finally has Thakur Singh captivated, only to find that the man imprisoned in his house is an impostor. Kakababu travels to the hills with a briefcase supposedly having the ransom money. After he is taken to the kidnapper's den by the kidnapper's henchmen, he discovers that the mastermind behind the operation is Simon Bubumba himself, who faked his own kidnap to get the money. After they are surrounded by Narendra Verma's forces, Santu discovers that the ring in Simon's hand contains the stolen moonstone. He deduces that Simon had the stone stolen to increase his chances of becoming the President as he has a belief in astrology.
