Synopsis

Pallavi, a woman scarred by a loveless childhood and her ruthless upbringing in Haldipur's mafia empire, becomes dangerously obsessed with Arindam, a compassionate schoolteacher.

Drawn by his caring gestures, Pallavi sees Arindam as her escape from a life of emptiness. But Arindam is married to Mithila, who is a simple housewife.

What begins as admiration turns into a terrifying nightmare as Pallavi stops at nothing to possess Arindam, ensnaring him and Mithila in a web of fear, manipulation, and danger.
