Madhapur village, 50 kilometres from Hyderabad.'
Hello. Sir.
I'm still trying to learn Telugu.
With the details I've got so far
this is the third time a child has been kidnapped.
In both the earlier cases
we found only their dead bodies.
The nature of the killings is the same.
So, we cannot see it as an ordinary criminal case.
The villagers are disturbed.
Sir. Sure.
I'll go to the village and check it out.
No.
Come on.
Quick!
Stretcher! Quickly!
Hurry up!
Quick! Fast.
Hello, doctor. This is me, Sam.
There's a very serious case. You will have to come.
Make it fast.
Doctor, the patient's state is very critical. - What happened?
She has been admitted to the ICU.
She is bleeding profusely. - Okay, we will see.
Doctor, it's the same case you attended last time.
How is her wound? - The wound is on her neck. - Okay.
She's losing blood. - Okay.
Arrange a CVP. - Sir.
And check her CT scans. Make it fast. Okay?
Bring her to the theatre. Fast. - Yes.
Take her.
Hey.
Hello, doctor. - Hi. - I'm Assistant Commissioner Saju Paul.
I'm Dr. Ram.
Doctor, are you a Malayali? - Yes. What brings you here?
I brought the child here.
I see. She is badly injured.
By God's grace, she survived.
The wound is on the main nerve below her neck.
She had lost a lot of blood. How did this happen?
This is the third case I'm attending so far.
Doctor, we suspect a maniac behind these attacks.
Maybe, a psychopath.
A local Jack the Ripper.
Is there no way to trace him?
It's very difficult to find when such people will attack.
They behave quite normally during the day.
It's difficult to trace them.
They may be someone we know quite well.
What do you think could be their motive?
Motive! They don't need any motive.
This is a mental imbalance
due to circumstances or by birth.
For instance, the villain we're on the look-out for is interested in
cutting the nerve on children's necks and see blood spurt out.
How can someone like this exist amongst us, in a hi-tech city?
Sorry. I'll take your leave.
Before he attempts his next attack, I need to trap him.
Okay, all the best. - Okay.
Sit here.
Okay.
Come on.
Move.
My God!
Come on.
'One year later..'
Why are they not coming?
You sing well.
Don't go there. Come here.
Come back. Don't go there.
Hello. - Ram, where are you? We're ready.
If you call every five minutes to ask where I am, what do I say?
I'm stuck in traffic.
Why are you getting irritated? Just say it.
How can I not get irritated?
Do you have the sense to understand all this?
Shyama, listen..
I would've called her back if she was my girlfriend.
She is my wife Let her go to hell.
Mom. - Yes?
There's no one to even help me here.
I must do everything.
Why can't you sit quietly?
You have spoiled your face. Sit quietly. - Okay.
Shyama, don't get upset.
I was busy.
Do you ever have free time?
Where did you find this mom from?
Dad, you sit at home from now.
If I sit at home, who will buy
you chocolates and dresses? Don't we need money to buy all that?
Where is she going?
Dad, take as much money as you want.
Isn't this enough?
Yes, this is more than enough
to buy dresses, chocolates
and to get you married, too.
She has become very naughty. Her teacher said she hit Harish.
She is a child. - Yes. Pamper her more.
Where's Kartika? - I don't know.
Mom..
What happened? Go and get ready quickly.
You said we'd take her to the psychologist today.
Speak softly. Our neighbours would've heard you.
I'm not sound-proof. This is how I speak.
God! She is impossible!
You're the only Malayali family I know in this city.
But I rarely meet you.
Ram is always in the hospital, right from morning to night.
He had no time to even carry her when she was an infant.
Same is the case with me. I have no time to even breathe.
I'm always busy. On one hand is my clinic
and on the other, I'm a consultant to the police.
She wants me to be with her always. - How is that possible?
Although she is married and a mother of two
she is as young as a college student. - Hey!
It's my fate.
My parents were waiting for me to turn 18 to get me married.
They didn't want to miss this alliance as he was a doctor.
After marriage, people were after me
to have children. Now, everyone is happy.
Ram, they will keep complaining.
But if we sit at home, they won't even bother about us.
Especially my wife.
Karthika, come here. Let me talk to you.
She is an introvert.
Every genius is an introvert.
Ram, please come.
You must be finding it difficult to manage both of them. - Yes.
That's the major problem.
Come here.
Nothing to worry.
Karthika is irritated by the closed rooms and the city lifestyle.
Wasn't she in your native place for a while? - Yes.
City life for the past two years is her major problem.
In simple terms, it's a kind of depression.
Vinod, what should I do?
Any medication?
That's not required.
She needs a change.
Specially, try to relocate from your present house.
Move in to a bigger house where there's more space.
That will be a relief not only to her, but also you.
That's very important for her.
Okay.
Shyama, why are you reacting this way? You're educated.
Understand the seriousness of this issue.
Please stop crying.
I cannot bear this.
I understand. We'll start looking for a new house from tomorrow.
If we move to a new atmosphere
she'll be fine in just six months.
Come.
I'm not coming anymore. I'm fed up.
You go and see more houses.
There is no one around.
You're right. - Come.
It's excellent.
It's very spacious and it has a good garden. Nice.
Great, isn't it? - What?
Do you find this webbed, dirty house good?
Sam, if I get this renovated
it will look excellent.
I'm thinking
if I can buy this house.
Come.
It has a good view. - You're right.
Good.
Yes?
Sam, tell him we're here to see the house.
We are here to see.. - Don't bother.
You may speak in Malayalam.
I came, seeing the advertisement in the newspaper. Who is the owner?
Stalin.
Who is he?
That's me.
Mr. Stalin, do you intend to sell this house?
Why?
I wish to buy it.
If you give me your phone number, I'll think and let you know.
This is my number.
So, you're a doctor.
Yes.
Ram, what made you suddenly think of buying a house?
We don't have a lot of savings.
Shyama, we should always be far-sighted.
We'll be in this city for some more years.
Our children's education is going on.
Isn't it better to buy a house?
After some years, we can sell it if we get a good price.
Dad.
Didn't you go to bed as yet?
No, Dad. When are we going to our new home?
If your mom consents, we can move tomorrow.
Don't take such decisions in haste.
We're not doing it for fun. It's for Karthika, too.
Hello, Dr. Ramdas here.
Hello, Stalin.
What's your decision? Okay, thank you..
Thank you.
All right, I'll come and see you.
Okay, then. Bye.
Hello. Shyama
we've got the house.
I live in that out-house.
So, I've excluded that from the sale agreement.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5
6, 7, 8, 9, 10
11, 12, 13, 14, 15..
Where were you, Stalin? The guests just left.
I had been to the market.
Well, the place is new for you.
So, be careful about your children.
That old man looks very strange, doesn't he?
He is a Malayali.
I thought it's good if a Malayali stays close by.
What's the matter, Vinod?
Nothing.
Ramya.
Ramya!
Ramya..
Ramya!
Mom, did you see Ramya?
You were playing together. Why are you asking me?
Where were you playing? - In the garden.
Ramya!
What's the matter?
My daughter is missing.
I told you to take care of the children. Come.
Yes!
Ramya..
I told you not to crawl into these shelves.
What if something had happened to you?
Don't repeat it, okay? - Okay.
Where's Stalin?
Come.
Sir.
I want to tell you something urgently. - Go ahead.
If you say, 'Raghava, don't say anything', I won't.
Okay, then don't. - Please don't say that.
I have to tell you this.
Sir, have you moved to Hill View? - Yes.
A ripper used to live in that house. He is no more.
People say his spirit still wanders in that place.
You need not worry.
I'm planning to write a thesis about spirits.
This is the right time. What do you think, Raghava?
It's your fate. What can I say?
Raghava. - Yes? - Come here.
I'm not afraid of spirits. Humans are more dangerous.
Come.
Good evening. Did Gopalan come?
Did Gopalan arrive?
That idiot was supposed to come today. I wonder where he is.
What's wrong with you? You look very disturbed.
The pictures of deities in our prayer room fell and broke.
No big deal.
You should fix the nail properly.
Don't ask mom to consult an astrologer to sort this out.
There's a market across the hill. Everything is available there.
Once Gopalan comes tomorrow, we'll ask him to get everything.
What's wrong with you? Why is your face like this since evening?
Are you still thinking about the broken photo?
Her face looks this way all the time.
I will slap you. Stop talking nonsense.
I feel embarrassed to take you anywhere.
What's wrong with you, Shyama? She is a child.
What's wrong with you?
No one believes in what I do.
God! What do you want? Do you want to conduct a prayer?
What happened to you?
I'd called mom. After what happened
we should at least get Ganapathy veneration and..
God! I don't have the money
to waste on such things.
You may believe in God, but don't be superstitious.
I'll call a plumber tomorrow and get the flush repaired.
It's dead! Throw it away!
Was that you? - Yes.
Ram enquired about you.
Weren't you supposed to come yesterday?
Shyama, don't ask me about it.
I mean, ma'am.
I lost my wallet when I arrived at Hyderabad station.
Where? - If I knew that, I wouldn't say I lost it.
I reached your old flat last night.
I was so hungry. There was nothing to eat.
I ate the biscuits I found there.
Those were dog biscuits.
How does it matter when one is hungry?
Forget about that. I'm hungry. What's there to eat?
We moved just yesterday. I haven't purchased anything.
What are those?
I'll have this for now.
Where do I sit?
You're here! When did you come?
Now.. - What?
I just came.
You started eating the moment you came in. Drink some water
so that the food goes down. - I was hungry and so..
We moved to this house just yesterday.
The place and surroundings are new to us. - Okay.
Shyama is not familiar with the place. - Okay.
You will have to go and buy her whatever she wants. - Okay.
I hope you know where the market is. - Okay. - Okay.
You have the same reply for every question. Where is the market?
Isn't it near KC.. - What?
I've come to a remote place in Andhra Pradesh
and you expect me to know where the market place is.
Cross the hill and turn to your right. You'll see the market.
If you know that, why don't you go shopping?
Ram, are you not having breakfast? - No.
I'll have it in the hospital. Bye.
He has breakfast in the hospital very often.
Does he have an affair with one of the nurses?
Poor ma'am! God, please be kind to her.
What do you want? - What does he want?
What do you want? Sugar, dal, rice, flour..
I'm asking you what you want.
You've been here a while. Stop bothering me. What do you want?
I just asked for a kilo of rice.
I didn't tell you to sell your shop to me. Why are you abusing me?
You will come to our state to visit Sabarimala.
Let me find out if there's a Malayali shop close by.
Catch him.. Thief..
He stole biscuits. Catch him.
He stole biscuits from my shop.
Catch him!
Thank God they did not see me.
God!
No!
No.
Where will you run off to?
Wait.. wait..
Catch him..
Where will you run off to?
How dare you take the biscuits! - Stop.
I don't want it!
Don't try to cheat me!
Hit him..
You bastard!
Thank you.
Who are you? What happened?
A Malayali was around?
I saw from a distance. - After all, you're a Malayali.
You will see only from a distance.
Come, get up. Let's go.
I must say, you behaved like a cop.
You reached immediately after they stopped beating me and left.
People here are good at beating people on the right spots.
They're the best.
Why did you mess with them?
He provoked me. I'm from Kunnamkulam and couldn't ignore it.
That means, the mistake was yours.
Actually.. - Who are you? - I'm Gopalan.
I have never seen you before.
I've come here for the first time.
Where do you stay?
Isn't there a house on the other side of the hill? Some hill..
Hill View? - Yes, that's the one. Do you know where the house is?
It's not just me.
Everyone in this village knows about the house.
No one passes by the house even during the day.
Why not? - Spirit. - What?
Yes.
The spirit of a psychopath who died long ago!
You must be kidding.
I have witnessed it.
Be careful while travelling alone.
People are too superstitious.
Really?
Are you going this way?
What? No, I'm not. I'm going this way.
I'll see you later.
No..
Ma'am!
What happened? - Fire!
Thank God! I saw the fire. Didn't you see it?
No, I was downstairs.
There are problems in this house. People were talking about it.
No.
Rascal! Scoundrel!
Sorry.
Go inside.
Where had you been?
There's a temple close by. We went there.
Couldn't you inform me before going? I got so worried.
You didn't have a prayer at home. I should visit a temple, at least.
I've got a sacred thread for each of us. Show me your hand.
I have better things to do. Take it away.
Ram, stop playing around and tie this.
Keep it there.
Tie it on your wrist if you believe in it. I'm keeping it in your bag.
If you change and come quickly, you can have 'Dosa'.
Are you my wife to compel me to eat?
Why did you stand behind me?
Sir, you stood in front of me.
Were you trying to scare me?
When you screamed, it's me who got scared.
How dare you answer me back? I will.. - No.
What are you doing?
I don't know what's wrong.
Whenever he sees me these days, he hugs me tight.
Dirty! - Disgusting!
Don't believe him. - Shame on you!
No..
I'm a super speciality doctor and you..
What are you doing?
I was not.. He is.. Shyama!
What a shame!
Dad.
Did you finish your studies? - Yes.
What about you?
Dad, what does the word 'Atheist' mean?
'Atheist' means one
who does not believe in God. Why did you ask?
Mom told us that you're an atheist. - Girls
you have to go to school tomorrow. Go to bed. Go.
Gopalan. - Okay, goodnight.
Give me a kiss. - Goodnight.
Goodnight.
I'm feeling sleepy. Are you coming with me?
Go quickly. - Come on.
What are you teaching the kids?
I told them the truth. You're an atheist.
I'm not an atheist.
My profession is such.
I can't go to the hospital with vermilion and an amulet.
But every day, before a surgery, I pray to God.
Forget about it.
Karthika is showing good improvement, isn't she? - Yes.
Behave more softly with her.
Okay.
Did you get scared on seeing her?
Come to me, dear. Come on.
She must not have been able to sleep alone in that room.
Come quickly, we're getting late.
Don't go. I'm coming, too.
I'll sit in the front.
Hello, Ram.
Shyama!
There's nothing inside. Because of your fear, you must've felt so.
Come, let's go inside.
If you're afraid, shall we ask your mom to come and stay here?
Ram, don't take everything so lightly.
There are some problems in this house.
We need to believe in certain things.
You must be imagining things as you're alone at home.
This is not the first time I'm alone at home.
I was alone even before.
Ram.. - No.
If you're planning to consult an astrologer.. - Let me.. - No.
Do as you please.
'Question papers leaked.'
How do children.. - Why don't you see properly and write?
They won't allow.. - Your handwriting is so bad.
Our state won't improve. - Write carefully. What is this?
This is an apple. Write down.
Group chaos..
I was just wondering if I missed..
Why don't you go to some other room and read?
Don't you see I'm teaching them?
I get to read a Malayalam paper only once in a year. If you don't
allow me to read even that, I will go back to Kerala.
Careful. - I don't want to bang into a road roller and die.
I told you to write carefully.
Why are you venting out your anger on the children?
Are you sleepy? Go and sleep. - That's enough. Go to bed.
Come on.
Are you at peace with me, now?
I'm sorry.
Ram. - Yes?
May I say something? - Yes.
Shall we move from here?
Shyama, please don't start again.
We are not going to move from this house.
What will people think?
A super speciality surgeon moved his house, fearing spirits.
I have no such plans.
All right, don't talk to me. - Okay, goodnight.
If something adverse happens, stick to your words.
Gopalan saw a shadow yesterday. He is frightened.
People were saying the same thing in the market.
Gopalan keeps instigating you. He got scared of someone's shadow!
His own shadow is so scary.
Black cat! Moron!
I'll teach him a lesson tomorrow.
Excuse me. Dr. Vinod?
He is there. - Thank you.
Good morning. - Good morning.
I'm coming here for the first time. - Good.
It's a different feeling with trees all around. Wow!
It's because it's winter now.
Else, this place is full of greenery.
How is your new house?
I came to discuss that.
Something serious?
Yes. There are some problems.
We hear some strange noises
and there was a fire once.
All these incidents have shaken Shyama.
I've asked Gopalan to be at home.
She wants to change the house.
Or we should perform some venerations.
Ram, women are very insecure.
That's why they say such things.
What shall I do now? I cannot always be with her.
Okay, one of my relatives had the same problem.
He consulted a 'Vastu' specialist.
After that, his problems were sorted out.
Why don't you try that?
Have you got into astrology, quitting psychology?
This isn't a ritual or superstition. It's a science.
Even in foreign countries
people construct huge buildings and landscapes as per 'Vastu'.
I don't know all that.
Ram, give it a try.
At least, for Shyama's piece of mind.
I'll suggest a person. One Mr. Lakshmi Narasimhan.
All your doubts will be cleared the moment you see him.
He is not like an ordinary astrologer. He is highly educated.
Basically, an architect.
Now, he is a 'Vastu' specialist.
We decide good and bad omens by looking at a lamp.
Here, the wick is burning downwards.
In brief, the 'Vastu' God is not happy with your house.
Hello. Yes.
One second. There's no network here. I'm coming out.
Okay, tell me.
No, I'll come to the hospital..
Okay. As decided..
I'll see you. Bye.
Sorry, it was an important call.
When a 'Vastu' specialist comes to see a house
the house owner usually does not believe in it. That's natural.
Is 'Vastu' really a science? It's natural for everyone
to have this doubt.
No, it's not that we don't believe in it..
I believe in it completely.
Because this is a science.
But to be honest, if the 'Vastu' of a house is wrong
many accidents can happen.
Including death.
But
in houses where spirits are believed to exist
the major reason behind the disturbances
is the shortfalls in 'Vastu'.
For example, what happened in your house
is due to the lack of 'Vastu''.
The glass of the window broke.
It may be due to the air pressure during winters.
The curtain was set on fire.
When sunrays enter the house through glass windows
the lens effect can cause fire.
Not only that, pictures falling down
and glasses falling down can be due to the imbalance of air.
In general, 'Vastu' is
creating a perfect balance of air, water
light and space.
All the four factors should be
considered while constructing a building.
Else, the result will be bad.
This is the summary of the science called 'Vastu'.
But with these prayers and omens
we understand many things.
So
we must respect the procedures
that we follow, although it is a science.
Shall I start my job?
A water source is closed somewhere here.
As per the 'Vastu', it should be reopened.
If you're interested, I can start the work on Friday.. - Actually..
Only if you are interested.
Shyama, don't worry. If we do some changes as per 'Vastu'
all these disturbances will end.
I still think it's better to move from this place.
Why are you so adamant about staying here?
If we start something, we should finish it.
Just for the sake of few superstitious beliefs
we shouldn't leave it mid-way like cowards.
That is my philosophy.
Our country has technologically improved a lot.
But such superstitions still exist.
Shyama, why do we visit hospitals if we still believe in all this?
We can sit at home, performing a prayer and chanting hymns.
Sorry, I'm a bit conservative.
Slow. Don't run. I'll fall.
Come.
Come on. Come running..
Come.
Dad, please drop me to school in your car from now.
Your idea is not going to work.
When I was your age, I walked to school.
My daughter should also go walking. Okay?
Ruby. - My school is very far.
My dad has a lot of money.
My dad has enough money.
Of course, I'm the second-richest man in Andhra Pradesh.
Don't talk big things.
Go and take a bath.
Ma'am, give me something to eat. I'm hungry.
You're more hungry than the children.
That's because I take care of them.
Grazing cattle is better than taking them to school.
I have struggled enough to put on this much weight.
If I don't eat on time, my mom will scold me.
Now, make the changes I told you
to make, as mentioned in my note.
Especially, your bedroom and the fish tank in the children's room.
Avoid sunrays entering from here.
You can use tinted glass here.
You can open it after sunset, if you want to.
Bye. - Bye.

'Every day of our life is a lesson in itself.'
'That's how a lesson I learnt was 'Vastu'.'
'I had no belief in it when I started it.'
'But the fact is'
'all the mysteries surrounding this house has vanished.'
''Vastu' is a real science.'
'Historical valuations based on science.'
'It has a scientific explanation to every little thing.'
'Everything can be scientifically explained.'
'My belief in it increased.'
What are you saying, Ram?
I think, it's your hallucination.
Doctor, I saw it personally.
What did you see?
A spirit, my foot!
Ram, you're disturbed right now.
Let's meet up tomorrow. Okay? Bye.
Did I scare you?
You came behind my back and showed me your scary face!
Dr. Ramdas, who believes in only science, gets scared, doesn't he?
You seem to be in a good mood today. Are you high?
There's a pleasant feeling after making changes as per 'Vastu'.
Actually, such things have meaning.
Go and get ready quickly.
Let's watch a movie tonight.
I told you, there's improvement after the 'Vastu' changes.
I'll get ready now.
"Oh darling, you're my life."
"Look at me and smile."
They've cleaned up the entire kitchen.
They didn't take me for a movie. Isn't there food for me?
Wow! 'Chappati' and peas gravy.
Hello. Is this the 'Your Choice' show?
Yes, who is speaking?
I'm Gopalakrishnan.
Gopalakrishnan, where are you calling from?
I'm calling from Hyderabad.
What do you do for a living?
I'm a doctor.
How is your work?
Doctors have no work.
Operations, patients and treatments. That's our world.
How nice! I'll play a nice song for you. Do you want to dedicate it?
Yes, I want to dedicate it
to my dad, mom, brother who are back in my native place
my sister, brother's family.. - Okay.
He has three children.
And my sister's husband's brother is in Sharjah. - Okay.
For the one in Sharjah and his friend, Satish
Satish and his family.. - I'll play the song.
He has three children. Their names are.. - Okay.
Nimmi, Geetu, Nisha. - I'm playing the song.
Okay. - Okay.
When can I watch the show? - Right now.
Can I watch it now? - Yes. Okay, bye. - Bye.
"Oh darling, you're my life."
Hey!
Hey! Get up.
What's wrong with you?
Where are you going at midnight with your luggage?
I can't stay in this house anymore. I prefer to die at home.
If I drink adulterated liquor and die
my photo will be printed in the papers and mom will get Rs. 10,000.
I don't want to be killed by a spirit here. - Where is it?
It's inside.
Where? - It's all around here.
Come here.
If you go away suddenly, who will guard my family?
So, you're scared for your family.
If you really love me, pay me for the ticket. I'll live somewhere.
Listen to me.. - No, I'll go to some other place.
I'll live somehow. - All right.
I'll drop you.
Stalin!
After I return, I want to see you.
Stalin. - Huh?
Stalin, the incidents that take place in this house..
Don't pretend you know nothing about it.
You knew that there was something wrong in this house.
What is happening here?
Only you can tell me.
But you're hiding everything. Tell me.
I'm trying not to believe in all this, too.
I thought it was my hallucination.
But now
I am confused, too.
What others say..
Now,
I believe in it, too.
This is
my son's grave.
He died in an accident.
Dead people don't come back.
But..
Hello, sir. We're coming from the nearby village.
A man saw something and is screaming in fear.
He is sweating and blabbering nonsense.
The hospital is very far from here.
Could you please come and examine him?
My family is alone at home.
A few of us will be here. Please come with us.
Give me a minute. - Okay.
Cool down.
Relax..
There's nothing to worry.
He has seen something scary and is in shock.
He'll be fine in a while. I've given him first aid.
What scared him?
He saw the Ripper's ghost.
Oh!
What's this?
It's a tradition they follow.
To keep spirits away. - Okay.
Sir, we'll drop you home.
Don't walk alone at night.
No, it's all right. I'll manage.
Sir. - What? - Give that to him.
This is not required. - No, sir. Please take it.
No..
Sir. Shall we leave now?
Yes. - Bye, sir.
Hi. - Hello.
Doctor, we don't see you at all.
I was busy.
My doctor is free now. In a way, it's good.
It is now that I'm spending some time with him.
Good evening, doctor.
Ramya, why are you so serious?
She wants a new mobile phone.
Didn't they go to school today?
No. Study leave.
I just finished fighting with them for studying.
She studies by herself. It's tough to deal with the younger one.
Sam, I need to talk to you. Come.
You were on leave yesterday and today.
What's the matter?
Sam, there are problems again.
I'm not able to concentrate on anything.
I'm really tense.
If it is causing too much disturbance, it's better to move.
Why take a risk?
Not because of any specific reason, but no.
Let's look for another house.
But.. I've purchased this house. How can I move all of a sudden?
Let's give an advertisement to find new buyers.
Or we can give it to some real estate agent and find a new place.
Okay, let's see.
Okay, then.. I'll make a move. - Yes.
Since you're on leave, I'm tied up with work.
Won't you come tomorrow? - Yes. - Bye. - Okay, then.
Ruby.
Ruby!
Dad!
Dad..
Dad, Ruby..
Dad..
Will this house be all right to live in temporarily?
Yes, you just want to relocate from that house for now.
Right. But the house will be vacant only after two weeks.
Two weeks will pass in a jiffy.
You're right, but there will be an unnecessary tension until then.
Come.
You're so educated
and a specialist surgeon in south India.
How can you believe in all this? - No.
No, Doctor. I tried my best.
I'm sure Shyama and the children are always in danger.
We'll forget science and its logic
when we experience such things in life.
We start believing in such things, too.
Okay. How is Karthika now?
She is all right, but she got a shock yesterday.
I told you about it.
Before you move from that house
I want to meet her once.
Karthika..
Maybe..
No, let me meet her once.
Hello.
Hi, Ram. This is Saju.
Hi, Saju. It's been a long time.
At least, you called now.
My job has no fixed times like yours.
I'm always busy.
Ram, I called you to tell you something important.
What is it?
We've got disturbing information from your area, Madhapur.
What is it?
People see a strange figure at night in those areas.
The locals are in a state of fear.
I also heard that the figure kills the cattle there.
It's a psychological fear.
Like the one a monkey spread in Delhi, long ago.
There's nothing to get worried about, Ram. I called you
because your house is isolated in that particular area.
Your wife and children are usually alone at home.
I'll call you back, sir.
Okay.
Sir, take me along.
I'll come with you, sir.
Sir..
Don't leave me and go.
Sir..
Sir, I'm coming with you.
Go! - What happened?
Ram.. - What is it?
Shyama, what happened?
There is someone inside. I saw him.
Shyama. - Yes?
Let's sell this house.
As you said, why invite more trouble?
I'll be in the hospital and you'll be alone at home.
No.
If we stay here
we might lose our peace of mind.
So, what about this house?
I've given an advertisement to sell it. We'll move in a week.
Until then, we need to be very careful.
We will have to find someone for company.
That's not required. It's just a matter of one week.
No. It is required.
What's the matter, Ram?
Whatever we hear.. Is that true?
What happened? - Sir, please see her.
She has lost a lot of blood. - Bring her inside.
Shyama, get my medical bag.
Child..
Shyama, bring it fast.
Child.. Dear..
She is
no more.
Shyama..
Hey! Shyama.
Mom. - Mom..
Hello. - Good morning.
What a pleasant surprise, ma'am! - Raghava
she will be here until evening. Show her around our hospital.
Of course, I will. She is our guest. Where are the children?
They've gone to school.
Go with him. - Come, ma'am.
Hello, sir.
Come in.
Yes. - What brings you here?
Sir, I need to talk to you.
What is it? - Sir, murders similar to yesterday
have happened before.
Most of the time, children were the victims.
According to the investigation, it was done by a Ripper.
But he died. Then why is the same kind of murder being repeated?
Yes.
How ridiculous! How will a dead man come alive?
What blunder are you saying, Ram?
How can you be sure he is dead?
The blood sample of the dead body matched.
The body weight, post-mortem report, everything was clear.
His body was also claimed by his father.
No, sir. There's some mystery.
Please re-investigate the case.
I cannot reopen the case so easily.
There are certain formalities to be followed.
But still, I'll try. I'll put this forward.
Yes, the fingerprints found on the child's neck
and the fingerprints found before are not the same.
This is a very rare case.
The one who is scaring people now is a different man.
Someone who is copying the psychopath, who is dead.
This is called as being in a trance state.
In simple terms, he is influenced by the actions of a man
and after he died
he starts considering himself as that man and lives his life.
He follows the footsteps of that psychopath and scares everyone.
He finds pleasure in it.
Not only that, he is more cruel
and dangerous than the one who died.
Saju, it's very difficult to trace this man.
In the present situation, he is very dangerous.
Ram, you need to be careful for a few days.
At least until the psychopath is caught.
There are a few things. One is your surroundings.
The psychopath used to live in your house.
And so, the chance of this man being around your house is high.
There is no one staying close to your place.
I hope you understand the seriousness of things.
In most of the murders earlier
the target was children below six years of age.
So, we need to be more cautious.
Don't allow your children to go out.
The safest option
in these circumstances is to move from there.
I have looked for a house.
But it will be vacant only after two days.
I'll ask for police security for these two days.
Stalin, the house owner stays next to us.
He will always be there.
But still, be careful.
This psychopath may be anyone. If he becomes violent
he'll outwit anyone who blocks way and succeed in his attempt.
I understand. I'll be careful.
Just for today.
Tomorrow, I will move to the new place.
Sir.
Ramesh. - Sir?
Inform the villagers about this psychopath. - Sir.
People shouldn't get scared of him, thinking he is a spirit. - Yes.
We need to be alert. - Yes, sir.
Warn people not to go out at night. Start searching for him.
Before his next attack, we need to trap him. - Okay.
Else, the number of deaths will increase.
The criminologist says that his mental state is very dangerous.
So, make things fast. - Yes, sir.
Hello. - Hello, doctor. This is Sam.
There's an emergency case. It's an accident.
You need to come immediately.
The patient is critical. - Okay, I'll be there.
Dad, I want to relieve myself.
Okay, go that side.
The spirit is around here somewhere again..
You wait near the outskirts and five of you be at the lake.
Rambabu, go with him.
Be here by morning.
Did you get it? Did you inform the commissioner?
Yes, he knows. - Good.
Hello, sir.
Sir, everyone has gathered here.
We are all afraid to go out.
After the attack this evening, everyone is frightened. - Okay.
Mr. Ramesh. - Sir?
I'm taking two cops with me to Dr. Ramdas's house. - Sir.
He has requested for police protection. - Sir.
Pass me the message if there's any information. - Yes, sir.
Okay.
Hello. - Shyama, are the police there yet?
Not yet.
He told me the cops will be there by evening.
Okay, don't be alone at home. Ask Stalin to come.
I'll be a little late. Call me as soon as the police arrive.
Okay? - Okay.
Did you get any information about him, sir?
No, we're searching for him everywhere.
We cannot rest in peace until he is under custody.
Yes. - Where could he be?
Stalin.
What happened?
Come on.
Shyama, don't be upset. Listen to me.
Ram, come home immediately.
I'm really scared.
Shyama, aren't the police there?
Come here in the police jeep with our children.
Listen to me. I'll be here. Please!
Children, wake up.
Come.
'Damn!'
Mom!
Mom..
Ramya!
Ramya..
Ramya!
Ramya.
Ramya.. - Dad, Mom is..
You sit inside.
Ramya!
Shyama.
Shyama..
Shyama!
Dad!
Ramya!
Mom..
Mom!
Mom.
Mom..
Mom.
Mom..
Let me go.
Mom.
Dad..
No!
Dad..
Dad!
Let me go.
Dad..
Let me go. Dad..
Let me go.
- Dad!
Dad!
Ramya?
She is in the car. Come, let's go.
Dad!
Hello.
Hello, Ram. - Yes?
I'm Saju. - Hi, Saju.
Ram, I've been transferred. - Really?
Special deputation to Kerala. - Oh! That's great.
It's also a promotion transfer. - Congratulations.
Thank you.
Hope there are no more problems in your house.
Problems? If there is a paradise on earth
it is right here, in this house.
Home, sweet home!
Great! Bye. - Okay, then. Bye.
