Mantra

In the dim outskirts of Hyderabad lies an old farmhouse known as Mantra Nilayam, its crumbling walls and overgrown lawns whispering of untold stories. The house carries a reputation that keeps potential buyers at bay, a lingering sense of dread that seems to seep from the very floorboards. The surrounding countryside is both beautiful and isolated, the kind of place where the wind can carry a whisper for miles and the night feels thick with unspoken secrets.

Mantra, the resilient owner, arrived in the city with hopes of building a new life away from the bustle of urban existence. Having survived a childhood marked by loss and constant movement, she exudes a quiet strength that hints at deeper layers beneath her calm exterior. When a determined professor expresses interest in purchasing the property—on the condition that someone lives there for three months—her path intersects with an unexpected ally.

Hero steps into the picture as a land‑settlement goon whose reputation precedes him, a man accustomed to navigating the gray zones of law and order. Though his past is rough around the edges, there’s an understated curiosity in his eyes that suggests he’s looking for more than just a simple job. The uneasy partnership between Mantra and Hero is forged by circumstance, each drawn to the house for their own reasons, yet both sensing that the walls hold more than just dust.

The tone of the film balances a brooding suspense with moments of uneasy humor, allowing the audience to feel the weight of the farmhouse’s history while rooting for the unlikely duo. As they settle into the eerie rhythm of daily life within Mantra Nilayam, an undercurrent of mystery pulses through the air, promising that the ordinary may soon give way to the extraordinary.
