Nonte Phonte is an iconic character created by Narayan Debnath. And great news for the fans of these iconic characters. A full-length feature film is made on these characters.

It has been approved and supported by the late Padmashree Narayan Debnath and directed by Anirban Chakraborty.

The story revolves around the relatives of Nonte Phonte who were forced to send the truants to a dormitory because the local villages of Hiraganj and Motiganj had grown tired of the pair’s mischievous antics. This dormitory is run by “Haati Sir,” another amusing character.

The two continue their antics and fun in the hostel as well. In the process, they manage to catch Kankra (the crab), a slimy small-time robber. This role is played by Amlan Majumder.

The notorious Dragon gang is made up of thieves like Kankra.

Dragon is a legendary kingpin of the underworld who is extremely hilarious and is portrayed by veteran actor Paran Bandopadhyay. He dreams of a utopian society where there are only thieves because he has educated many thieves and dacoits in the area.

The hostel’s school monitor, Keltu da, ends up being Nonte Phonte’s adversary. He is a highly envious senior who keeps impeding their every step. And despises anyone who stands in the way of him gaining Haati Sir’s favor. Every time he tries to bring them into trouble, the cunning pair manages to trap him. His phony bravado is frequently pierced by the two.

The narrative then shifts to amusing and fascinating accounts of catching a tiger on the hunt and all hell breaking loose. All the passengers in a public bus that is returning from the jungle are abducted by a forgetful criminal couple played by Sumit Samaddar and Dipankar. They arrive at the Dragons Den.
