Still thinking about how Shaitaan (2024) ended? Here’s a full breakdown of the ending, key final moments, major twists, and the deeper meaning behind the film’s conclusion.
In the climax, the stranger Vanraaj reveals that the only way his dark ritual can be completed is for the parents to explicitly surrender their daughter, Janvi. Once Kabeer and Jyoti, horrified, utter those words, Janvi—under a hypnotic spell— carries out Vanraaj’s cruel commands, even throwing her brother Dhruv from the terrace.
Desperate, Kabeer manages to track Vanraaj’s phone and records the man’s own voice as he warns that the girl will only break free if she hears a command to do so. Kabeer later edits the recording, turning Vanraaj’s words into a reversal that snaps Janvi out of the trance. While Jyoti rushes Dhruv to the hospital, Kabeer confronts Vanraaj at his hideout, where the villain keeps dozens of other girls imprisoned for future sacrifices. In a brutal showdown Kabeer cuts out Vanraaj’s tongue, the only thing that can issue the mind‑controlling command.
When the captive girls charge at Kabeer, he plays the manipulated audio; hearing the “command” frees them, and Janvi returns to herself. The police arrive, rescue the abducted girls and reunite them with their families.
The film ends on a chilling note: Kabeer is seen walking back into the forest, entering an underground bunker where Vanraaj lives as a starving prisoner, sustained only by dead rats. Kabeer leaves him to suffer, promising no mercy, and the camera lingers on the sinister captivity, leaving Vanraaj’s ultimate fate—and a possible sequel—unresolved.
