==Plot==
[[Professor Subarna Sen|Subarna Sen]] (Sonada) ([[Abir Chatterjee]]) is a professor of history at Oxford University. Returning to India after several years, Sonada meets his nephew Abir ([[Arjun Chakrabarty|Arjun Chakraborty]]) and Jhinuk ([[Ishaa Saha]]), Abir's best friend. Abir takes Sonada to their ancestral home in the village of Manikantapur, where Abir’s eccentric but erudite maternal uncle Harinarayan Singha Roy ([[Goutam Ghose]]) had recently died under mysterious circumstances. During their visit, they learn of the 350-year-old Mughal treasure of emperor [[Shah Jahan]]'s second son, Prince Shuja, that is hidden somewhere in that palace. Before his death, Harinarayan Singha Roy had left a clue in his diary to help Abir locate the treasure. At the same time, they discover that the local promoter and political hopeful Dashanan Da ([[Rajatabha Dutta]]) also knows about the treasure and is trying to steal it.<ref name="auto">{{cite web|url=https://ebela.in/entertainment/hoichoi-to-present-an-adventurous-web-series-for-the-first-time-in-bengal-1.724170|title=ফেলুদা-ব্যোমকেশকে টেক্কা দিতে পরদায় আসছে এবার সোনাদা|last=প্রতিবেদন|first=নিজস্ব}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cinestaan.com/articles/2018/feb/28/11403/bengali-ethos-essence-of-dhrubo-banerjee-s-guptodhoner-sandhane-to-be-released-on-27-april|title=Bengali ethos essence of Dhrubo Banerjee’s Guptodhoner Sandhane; to be released on 27 April|first=Roushni|last=Sarkar|website=Cinestaan}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.cinestaan.com/articles/2018/mar/28/12086/actor-abir-chatterjee-promises-biggest-treasure-hunt-in-guptodhoner-sandhane-trailer-launch|title=Actor Abir Chatterjee promises 'biggest treasure hunt' in Guptodhoner Sandhane: Trailer launch|first=Roushni|last=Sarkar|website=Cinestaan|access-date=10 April 2018}}</ref><ref name="firstpost.com">{{cite web|url=https://www.firstpost.com/entertainment/guptodhoner-sandhane-movie-review-dhrubo-banerjee-takes-us-on-a-joyride-of-a-treasure-hunt-4450153.html|title=Guptodhoner Sandhane movie review: Dhrubo Banerjee takes us on a joyride of a treasure hunt- Entertainment News, Firstpost}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sangbadpratidin.in/guptodhoner-sandhane-movie-review-tight-knit-story-depicting-bengali-fabric/ |title=Guptodhoner Sandhane movie review: Tight knit story depicting Bengali fabric | Sangbad Pratidin Home |publisher=Sangbadpratidin.in |access-date=2018-06-09}}</ref>
