Thinking it’s a priceless artifact, Aryan’s friend pulls the trident from the chest.
: In the modern era, the young protagonist, Suman (played by Aarti Gupta), learns of the curse hanging over her family. Defying her father's warnings, she visits the ancestral village alongside her lover, Sanjay (Mohnish Bahl), and their friends.
: The group stays near the abandoned, decrepit temple—the Purana Mandir —where Saamri's severed head is kept in a box. Inevitably, the box is opened, Saamri's body is reunited with his head, and a reign of terror begins.
New generations of horror fans are discovering old-school horror techniques and finding them charming, effective, and unique compared to contemporary cinema.
