Shattered by the loss of her twins, software engineer Viji becomes the prime suspect in a chilling crime—the drowning of her best friend Neha’s baby. ASP Kanika, haunted by her own personal loss, is pulled into an investigation that quickly spirals into a nightmarish descent. Viji’s eerie silence only deepens the enigma, and as Kanika digs further, her instincts sense something far more sinister lurking beneath the surface.
The evidence hints at Viji’s involvement in black magic to resurrect her twins, but the scene defies logic. Viji is found in a trance, cradling the lifeless baby, while Neha has vanished without a trace. Neha isn’t alone; in the past week, four pregnant women have disappeared, each leaving behind a blood-streaked symbol—an ominous mark of doom.
When Neha’s mutilated body is discovered, branded with the same grotesque symbol, Kanika realizes she’s up against something much more terrifying than a serial killer. As she unravels a web of evil tantric practices, Kanika confronts a horrifying possibility: Is she hunting a twisted killer, or has she awakened an ancient, malevolent force? And if so, how long before it comes for her?
