Summaries

Mohan is a medical student who lives in the United States. One day, he receives a strange phone call from his grandfather asking him to come back to his native village in India. Once he arrives, he finds out that his brother and sister-in-aw have mysteriously disappeared. His little cousin Tanaji survived, but is behaving very strangely: he never speaks a word, gets up in the middle of the night, sometimes suddenly turns cold, and mistreats his toys. Mohan tries to solve the mystery, but fails to find a rational explanation for all the creepy things that happen. Everything points in the direction of the caretaker's wife, Parvati, who performs rituals of black magic.—Jan van Steenbergen

New York based Dr. Mohan lives in a common-law relationship with Claire. He returns home to Kethwadi Village in Maharashtra, India, after a period of 15 years so that he could open a hospital in Mumbai with his grandfather's assistance. Upon arrival he is shocked to find his brother, Mandhar and his wife, Snehal - missing; his traumatized nephew, Tanaji, is unable to speak; the police believe they were victims of human sacrifice; his grandfather lives in the past; while the wife, Parvati, of their employee, Viju, has undertaken a seven-day fast to appease Devi Maa Kali in a bid to purportedly take over the body and soul of Tanaji.—rAjOo ([email protected])
