Two timelines. One cursed legacy.
1940s–2000s Bengal — a brutal robber leader known for his lust, cruelty, and obsession with
gold dies, but doesn’t disappear. Bound by a dark tantric ritual, his soul remains trapped in this
world — haunting his own family for generations.
In the present day, his grandson, Bidhan, becomes the unwitting host of his evil — until
Bidhan’s wife, Shanti, decides to break the chain. But to defeat the spirit, she must first survive
his desires… and society’s silence.
