Plot

The film begins with Suraj and Nisha in love and soon to be married. Thakur, who lusted for Nisha, kills Suraj, and as a result Nisha commits suicide.

Twenty years later, Kiran is the only child of wealthy widower Thakur. While she resides in Britain, her dad lives in a palatial house in rural India. When the time comes for her to return home, her dad arrives at the airport to meet her and is surprised to see her in the company of a young man whom she introduces as her husband Suraj. Thakur is shocked to see that he resembles the Suraj he murdered 20 years ago. Thakur overcomes his shock at seeing Suraj, but welcomes him.

While driving, Suraj sees a woman in white blocking the road, but his driver is unable to stop the car in time. They alight from the car to find that nobody is on the road. That night, Suraj has a dream about a woman clad in white who is summoning him, claiming that she is Nisha, his wife from a previous life. Using her magical powers she inserts a nail into one of Suraj's legs on a new-moon night. On the next new-moon night she inserts a nail into his other foot, then waits for Karva Chouth, the day that will put him completely under her control.

Nisha has an old score to settle with Thakur. A frantic Kiran will not give up her husband to Nisha, so she and her dad seek help from Tantrik Baba and Bhavani Baba. Will the Tantrik and Bhavani be able to assist them, or will they too fall prey to the vengeful spirit? [2]
