1920

In the mist‑shrouded hills of 1920 British India, a solitary mansion stands apart from the surrounding wilderness, its stone walls whispering of a dark secret that has felled every owner and anyone daring enough to alter its shape. The estate’s reputation as a living curse draws the attention of a wealthy businessman seeking to transform it into a boutique hotel, and with it arrives a newly married couple eager to start fresh. Arjun Singh Rathod, a talented architect who has broken away from his conservative family, moves in with his wife Lisa Singh Rathod, hoping the remote retreat will offer peace after a tumultuous past.

The manor’s atmosphere is suffused with an oppressive, gothic elegance: grand corridors echo with unseen footfalls, rooms are sealed behind heavy doors, and an old library holds a solitary piano that seems to wait for an unseen hand. The house exerts a subtle, unsettling influence on those within its walls, cultivating a sense of unease that seeps into the couple’s relationship. As they settle, Lisa is haunted by strange sounds and fleeting shadows, while Arjun attributes the oddities to stress and the stark contrast between city life and the silent countryside. Their differing reactions set the stage for a fragile partnership tested by forces they cannot name.

Around them, the manor’s staff embody the tension that permeates the estate. M.K., the estate manager, is eager to see the project progress, yet he guards the property’s mysteries with a tight‑lipped resolve. The caretaker, Balwanth, is wary of the house’s history and reluctant to speak of the tragedies that have preceded the couple’s arrival. Meanwhile, Father Thomas, a local priest, senses an unsettling presence and offers his quiet blessing, hinting that the manor may be more than just stone and timber. Together, these characters navigate an environment where romance, dread, and the unknown intertwine, leaving the audience to wonder whether love can survive the house’s silent, lingering menace.
