Junoon

Vikram and Arun venture into the forest on a full moon night, chasing a tiger. They ignore Bheema’s warning that this night belongs to the cursed creature. As a heavy rain begins, they push on, hoping to find or outrun the predator and seek shelter soon.

Storm forces them to seek shelter and they stumble upon a dark den. Strange voices seem to come from the walls, unnerving them. They decide to enter the den to escape the downpour.

Inside the den, Arun uncovers Sanskrit writings describing a king who sought a child through a forbidden ritual. The tale warns that the king's curse turns him into a tiger on full moons. Anyone who kills the tiger risks a curse passing to them.

Vikram mocks the old myth, insisting there’s no curse. Soon a cursed tiger attacks, killing Arun on the spot and triggering Vikram’s fear. He knocks over a torch, starting a ring of fire that traps both him and the tiger.

The tiger disappears after the fire ring, and Vikram fires blind shots into the darkness. The tiger is driven off and Vikram survives the encounter, shaken by what happened.

The gunshots and commotion draw Harry and Bhaskar to the scene. They find Vikram badly injured, and Bhaskar carries him toward a hospital in a bid to save his life.

At the hospital, Vikram is declared dead, and the doctors prepare to close the case. The tiger’s spirit enters Vikram’s body and he returns from the dead, leaving the medical staff stunned. A strange new life has begun for him.

Vikram is treated by Dr. Nita and begins to sense an evil presence within him. His dead friend's spirit warns him about the curse and urges suicide, but Vikram refuses. The curse’s influence grows stronger as his behavior shifts.

Vikram’s obsession with Nita grows after she falls for Ravi, an aspiring singer. He plots to drive a wedge between them and actively negotiates with Nita’s father to secure her hand in marriage. The tension escalates as he uses manipulation to seize control.

The wedding night coincides with a full moon, and Vikram fully transforms into a tiger, killing an unknown woman. The killings continue on subsequent nights as his hunt for fresh victims intensifies.

Inspector Sudhir Pai and Bhaskar reopen the murder case and notice patterns matching animal attacks. They suspect Vikram but lack enough hard evidence to arrest him. The investigation races ahead as new clues emerge.

Bheema warns that Nita is in danger, and Ravi urges her to leave Vikram. She refuses to abandon him, believing the curse can still be stopped. The group fires up a ring of fire to protect themselves as Vikram approaches.

Harry discovers a temple dagger capable of killing the beast and ending the curse. The team travels toward the mountains where the temple is said to reside, hoping to find the weapon.

In a mountain cave they find a line of daggers and learn that only the enchanted dagger will do. At sunset a magical ray reveals the correct blade. Vikram arrives, takes Nita hostage, and the standoff intensifies.

Ravi and Nita fight to seize the dagger from Vikram. As the moon rises, Nita finally throws the dagger to Ravi, who stabs Vikram and ends the curse. Vikram dies, bringing Junoon to an end.
