Jatadhara (2025) Movie Script

[High beat music]
[Drums playing]
Thousands of years
ago people had wealth,
But people didn't know how to keep it safe
in those days, [Eagle screech]
Where there is wealth there will
be robbery and wickedness.
[Horse neigh]
People always
lived in fear,
- wondering when a thief might attack.
- [Sword swishing]
They didn't have banks or
lockers to protect that wealth. [Coin clanking]
At that time, they used to dig
earth and hide their wealth in earthen pots.
Still They couldn't
stop thieves.
The thieves used to slit their throats,
Dig up the earth and take away the wealth.
They found a way to protect the
wealth hidden in the earth,
Those are the bindings (restraints).
To protect wealth They used to cast spells
and various tantric methods,
to make different
kinds of bindings.
[Dramatic music]
Among these bindings, the most terrifying
one is the demonic binding.
The demon gives back the wealth
only if you offer the sacrifice it wants.
At a place where such a
binding had been cast.
[Somber music]
[Bed creaking]
[Sigh]
[High intense music]
[Coin clinking]
[Somber music]
[Coin clinking]
[Coins clanking]
[Somber music]
[Coin clanking]
[Somber music]
[Coin clanking]
[High intense music]
- Oh..
- [Gasp]
[Breathing heavily]
What happened?
What happened?
Did you get the
same dream again?
[Somber music]
[Birds chirping]
[Soft music]
- Priest...
- Yeah...
I keep having the same dream
again and again for many days.
In that dream, a woman appears
wearing gold from head to toe.
She wakes up at midnight in fear
and starts saying all this,
What else do you see?
There are huge golden
pots all around her,
Her laugh...
Her laugh...
Enough... Energy ( Vastu) defect...
A special ritual needs to do.
this is a house given by our ancestors,
how can there be an Energy defect now?
Your wife has been seeing this dream,
But your ancestors never did.
[Grunts]
I'll stay here tonight.
Okay.
[Crow caw]
[Demon laughing]
[Gasp]
[Breathing heavily]
[Door open]
Mr. Priest,
What happened?
Don't stay in this house
for another moment,
Otherwise your lives
will be in danger.
[Scary rousing music]
Greetings to everyone.
I am Manish Sharma.
I welcome you all to IPR
Indian Paranormal Researchers.
In our language, it can be called the
Indian Ghost Association...
So let's have a great day of debates
and discussions.
The question many
of us have is
what exactly are these ghosts,
these spirits, and all these things?
I'd say we can consider
them as energies.
And these energies
can be either positive or negative.
These energies can neither be created
nor be destroyed.
Where shall we
go after this?
He must have planned
something, let's see.
So how do all these spirits communicate with us?
There are many ways,
But there are two important ways.
One is in the form of apparitions.
appearing to us
in a smoky form.
Means,
appearing to us in a smoky or misty form.
The other one is in the
form of poltergeists.
That is,
moving objects without our involvement,
Or through some
other medium...
...making us feel
someone touched.
So let me ask
you first.
how many of you believe
that ghosts really exist?
Can you please stand up so that
I can have a clear sight?
so there's not even a single person here
who doesn't believe in ghosts...
Please sit down.
So, you don't
believe in ghosts?
I do, I'll believe
it when I see one.
Good answer.
Come here please.
Yes sir...
- Mr...
- Shiva...
If we want to see ghosts, we need
to have some equipment with us.
Ankit, go bring
our equipment box.
Okay sir.
This is a recorder
it records voice frequencies.
this is a thermal camera.
It captures apparitions.
And this is my favorite electromagnetic
field detector, EMF machine.
Alerts us if there are
any energies present.
And This...
A ghost hunter who doesn't even believe in ghosts,
carrying ghost-hunting equipment.
Why?
To prove that ghosts
and spirits don't exist.
But why try to prove something doesn't exist
if you don't believe in it anyway?
[Dramatic music]
[Scary intense music]
[Tree leaf rustling]
Why did you stop?
Let's go this way
through the lake,
My mom said there's a ghost
on this tamarind tree.
I'm scared...
Come on, this is the shortcut.
There's no ghost or anything
hurry up,
I'm here with you.
[Tree leaf rustling]
[Thunder rumbling]
Hey Ramesh...
Wake up...
Hey Ramesh...
What happened?
Wake up...
Hey Ramesh...
What happened?
Hey Ramesh...
Wake up...
[People sobbing]
No one believed there was
a ghost on that tree,
Now look at this, that
ghost has killed him.
Okay I understand.
how do your
friend died?
Was it the ghost
that killed him?
Fear killed him.
If the ghost was there,
it would've killed me too.
[High beat music]
Fear is like an
infectious disease.
it spread through the
whole village quickly.
Everyone believed there was a ghost on that tree,
So they put up fencing around it.
I felt that along with their fear,
their blind beliefs had to be killed too.
[Rousing music]
If there's really a ghost here,
come and kill me.
There's no ghost here!
So you're saying fear is more dangerous
than ghosts,
and ghosts
don't exist...
If you don't believe in ghosts or fear?
Why do you wear those threads on your wrist?
It's for the ghosts,
isn't it?
[Chuckles]
Silence!
Even when I
was bleeding
my mother tied a sacred
thread on my hand before the bandage,
My mother keeps
tying it for me,
It doesn't mean I'm afraid of ghosts
or believe.
It's respect...
The respect I
have for my mother.
You have a
lot of courage.
With the kind of interest you have,
whether anyone else here sees a ghost or not
You're the one who'll
definitely see it.
If there's a ghost, tell it to come
and give me a hug, sir.
[Chuckles]
I wish you
all the best.
[Machine beeping]
[Door creaking]
[Rats squeaking]
[High intense music]
[Scary intense music]
[Gasp]
[Exhale deeply]
Where is He.
Hey, Shiva
I'm really scared.
Did you know
the factory owner Stephen allegedly
raped kids and killed here!
Then people killed him too
and buried him here.
I think his spirit
might still be here.
[Glass shatters]
Stephen might
be come here,
Why are you asking me?
[EMF machine beeping]
Mr. Stephen, if you're here,
please give us a sign.
If you want to talk
to us, give one blink.
If you don't want to
talk, give two blink.
See, there's
nothing here.
Leaves moving in the wind, a chair shifting,
these things are quite common.
when people say someone died here
and became a ghost,
Our mind starts to believe that everything
happening is because of that ghost.
It tricks us.
Come on, let's go.
Did you understand?
I didn't understand
a thing either.
Hi dad,
How are you dad?
How are you dear?
Hi Mom!
Hey your daughter
is on phone call.
Hi dear!
I'm making food for God,
will talk to you later.
[High beat music]
Oh, I stepped on it!
I'm scared.
When are you
coming home?
I am coming in 10 mins
Okay fine.
If someone's there,
blink.
Ghost! Take this.
Hi Auntie...
Who are you dear...
Auntie, Shiva...
- Hi...
- Hi,
I'm coming,
sit there...
[Chuckles]
- Hey Ramesh
- Suresh
Manish
- Are you Manish Sharma's assistant,
- Yes...
- Why are you here?
- This is my house.
Oh, built a big house.
Great...
Come.
Ghost.
Hi!
Hello, guys.
Good morning Shiva,
- Good morning sir.
- Morning everyone.
Shall we start sir?
This is a break through
in house automation.
It is accessible
to your phone.
It means, everything in your house
is under your control
- Thank you.
- [Clapping]
How long and how many days
will this continue shiva?
20 more days.
After that?
The thesis will
be ready soon...
Once it's done,
give me a call, we'll meet. Bye.
- Bye.
- Okay.
He will go to office,
The kids go to school and
and I'm left alone at home.
It gets so boring, Dad.
There are no Telugu people around here,
so I'm thinking of doing a job.
Please find the documents
and send them to me Dad.
- Alright, I'll find it. Is that why you called?
- What's up, Dad?
Hey, your sister's
on the phone.
- Hello?
- Hi, Shiva!
How are you?
Nothing is new, I'm asking documents
and Dad is not sending them...
- Send them dad,
- Can you please send them?
She's getting
bored at home.
You're calling at 4 AM
to ask for this, dear?
Is your husband's salary not enough
for you?
- No, send me your salary bro,
- Okay,
- Dad, Send them to her.
- What?
[Light switch on]
[Clock ticking]
[Intense music]
[Demon voice]
[Baby laughing]
[Gasp]
[Breathing heavily]
[Phone ringing]
Hello.
Hey,
Are you woke up?
Yeah...
A boy keeps coming
to my dreams,
What?
and someone is trying
to kill that boy.
That's why I told you not
to step on those lemons,
See now, Some ghost
child has caught you.
Nonsense, according to science
the human brain can't create new faces.
If someone appears in your dream,
you must have seen them somewhere.
That's why said stop watching
that horror movies.
At least now, stop going around
haunted houses thinking about ghosts.
Okay...
You said you'd quit all this,
but you fooled me and brought me here.
[EMF machine beeping]
If somebody here
give me a signal.
[EMF machine beeping]
[Thuds]
What, man?
Did you get scared?
Ah no,
I wasn't scared at all.
I'm not scared at all.
I've been tough since I was a kid.
See the window
rattling?
It's just the wind,
pure science.
And those leaves,
they're moving 'cause
of the wind too.
And that girl...
Shiva!
Shiva!

Hi Mom,
I just got off the train.
Talking to friends,
I will come to home.
bye. bye.
[Temple bell]
[Crow caw]
Hey, please send me just this once.
I'm not like everyone else.
Not posible..
Please!
- No, no. No!
- Let me go inside.
- Swami means so much to me.
- Not possible...
Aunty, I'll take
you there. Come on.
Really?
Priest...
Please send her.
Come.
What's your name,
Aunty?
Janaki.
She is Janaki... she
wants to meet you...
May you live a long life filled
with prosperity and peace.
Shiva, come here.
Yes, Mom.
It's not just the rituals,
I love listening to his preaching too.
Since when have
you known him?
- Here you go.
- It's barely been a few days.
What took you so long?
I went to meet
my friends.
Do you know
who I met today?
Who?
- Neelakanthashastri garu!
- Oh really?
All these years, I keep asking
to meet him, but you never care.
Now, their daughter
arranged it.
- Where is your daughter?
- Hello.
Sitara!
Come here, dear.
[Laughs]
- This is my son, Shiva.
- Hello.
Hello.
Babu, what happened
to your eye?
Yes, it's red.
Shampoo got in it, Mom.
Oh, but it doesn't usually stay like
that for so long.
It's just because
he's been sleeping late at night.
I've told you so many times not
to keep asking about it.
If that's the case,
then both eyes should look like that, right?
Come on, Mom. It's eyes,
how would I know what happened?
Alright.
[Chuckles]
The Supreme Lord said to Arjuna,
"O son of Kunti,
Sit down, son.
at the time of death,
whatever a person thinks of the most,
whatever fills his mind,
I'm sorry.
that is the state
he will attain."
For what?
It's okay.
Thank you.
For what?
For introducing my mom
to Neelakantha Shastri garu.
What were you doing
there at that time?
I'm an archaeological researcher.
I study ancient temples and idols.
There's a statue
inside that building,
But the owner didn't give me
permission to enter.
When I saw you two,
I thought you were his men.
That's why I sprayed
and ran away.
What were you two doing
there at this hour?
- I'll tell you only if you don't tell my mom.
- Okay! Go on.
I'm a ghost hunter.
What?
Ghost hunter.
And you almost mistook
me for a ghost!
No, I didn't think
you were a ghost.
That means...
I am a ghost hunter
who doesn't believe in ghosts,
That's why elders say a person's death
shouldn't be incomplete or filled with regrets.
Why do we think about our ancestors
who passed away long ago?
Why do we hold a prayer
for them every year?
So their souls
may find peace.
These days the living don't have peace,
and he's talking about souls.
You don't believe in ghosts,
yet you do ghost hunting.
That means you're either a very
interesting person or a total psycho.
Oh really?
the one who does and makes others do,
that's him lord shiva.
- Har Har Mahadev!
- Shambho Shankara!
Hello, Shiva
Where are you?
Hey, stay away from me!
- What's up, Ramesh?
- Hi!
Told you,
I never get scared.
Bro Shiva, they say a husband
and wife's ghosts haunt this place.
I'm not, not me..
Hey, move aside..
Found your girl and
forgot your bro, huh?
Run!
Go, go, go!
[Police siren]
Hello sir, Greetings...
Hey shiva,
her dad accepted for our marriage.
- Is it?
- Yes.
Really?
Congratulations!
I haven't even encountered a ghost yet,
and you have brought one along with you
What?
I am saying, you
got a very good girl
Hi!
My horoscope?
Why?
Okay, I'll send it.
[Intense music]
[Chime toy sound]
[Baby laughing]
[Cycle bell]
Bro, one more...
Ghost Hunter Manish Sharma's assistant
Ankit Tiwari died
under suspicious
circumstances.
His sudden death has
not only left everyone in shock
but has also raised
several new questions.
Ankit Tiwari's unexpected death
has left his family...

[Accelerate sound]
[Gear change]
[Tire sreech]
Hey!
[Tire sreech]
[Dog barks]
[Radio playing]
Thank you.
Thanks...
Yes, sir.
This haunted place issue
is getting out of hand.
I've sent you the file.
Do some research on it
and give me a report.
Yes, sir.
If there's nothing there,
we can create public awareness.
Yes, sir.
- Our people will help with the police permission.
- Okay, sir.
Yeah, yeah, I'll
get back to you, sir.
- Please look into it quickly.
- Thank you, sir. Thank you.
- Okay.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Sorry guys, that was an important call.
- It's fine, sir.
Tell me.
Sir, it's about Ankit.
How did it happen?
He went to that village
to dig near the treasure pots
and also to find out what exactly
was going on there.
After he returned, all the reports
Ankit gave were perfectly fine,
but a few days later,
he died under mysterious circumstances.
Because of the
wealth pots, sir?
There's a belief that
some powerful forces guard them.
Sir, your signature,
please.
To please those forces,
people sometimes offer animal sacrifices,
and in some cases,
even human sacrifices.
Where, sir?
Who is that tantric?
[Intense music]
Shiva...
Look, Shiva, I'm not telling you
all this because I expect you to solve it.
I just want you to understand
how dangerous this is.
Not all spirits are friendly.
Some are very dangerous.
- But, sir...
- I'm sorry, I cannot give you that information.
After seeing what happened there because
of those treasure pots, you still want to go?
I don't want to
lose you, Shiva!
Why are you
getting so tense?
You think something'll happen to me?
Fine, I won't go there.
Problem solved, simple.
Are you lying to me the same way you lied
to your parents?
[Chuckles]
No, no, I'm telling the truth!
See, the phone's ringing...
Hold on a minute.
Enjoy.
Cheers!
Boss, is there
other arrangements?
"Drop the beat!"
"How much longer will you be a bachelor?
Come on, catch a kiss!"
"Enough of this single life,
Let's dive right in, come on!"
"How much longer will you be a bachelor?
Come on, catch a kiss!"
"Enough of this single life,
Let's dive right in, come on!"
"The end of my saree is slipping,
Begging for you to catch it."
"This blockbuster story is ours,
So go on and put up the posters!"
"Set the trend,
boy, set the trend!"
"Set the trend,
boy, set the trend!"
"In seconds... in seconds... in seconds...
In a way that's bound to go viral... You..."
"Set the trend, boy,
Set the trend!"
"Set the trend, boy,
Yeah, set the trend!"
"Your gaze is pure electricity, your vibe...
Sends a current rushing right through me."
"Our hearts connect, caught in a net of charm,
In that one electrifying moment."
"Let my sweet, moist lips touch yours,
In this burning fire of our youth."
"Let your hands greet the curve of my waist,
And feel the heat in our romance."
"Let's make this cool, cool night sizzle,
With the sweetness of a kiss on my tender cheek."
"Come on closer, baby,
Not a loose one,
give me a crazy-tight hug, you beauty!"
"Set the trend, boy,
Set the trend!"
"Set the trend, boy,
Yeah, set the trend"
"In seconds... in seconds... in seconds...
In a way that's bound to go viral... You..."
"Set the trend, boy,
Set the trend!"
"Set the trend, boy,
Yeah, set the trend!"
No western, only mass
beats, Man, You start.

Right now?

Alright, Guruji.
[Phone ringing]
Who else would call me,
except your daughter?
Let's see what it is.
This girl, seriously.
Hello!
Did you find
my certificates?
No, dear, not yet.
I have an interview tomorrow, Dad.
I at least want to show them a PDF, please.

- Okay.
Baba, he's my friend.
He came to see
the golden urn.
[Chants]
Hey! What are you up
to? Just put it inside.
Hey, who is it?
He wishes to
see the ritual.
We need to offer a person
as a sacrifice for this.
He'll serve
the purpose.
Every step he takes
leads to danger.
[Dramatic music]
Death could strike
him from any direction.
This isn't just
about his own life,
the misfortune in his chart also threatens
his family and everyone who stays with him.
[Chants]
[Dramatic music]
[Digging sound]
[Chanting mantras]
[Wind whooshing]
[Coin clinking]
If someone marries the guy
with this horoscope...

Even nature itself seems
to be wishing for his death.
[Demon screams]
[Thunder]
[Teeth grinding]
Hey, don't stop
digging. Keep digging.
[Digging sound]
[Grunts]
[Gasp]
Dear! What happened?
How did you fall like that?
- Come on, get up slowly.
- Oh God!
Nothing happened.
You just pick up that paper.
Careful.
Did you hurt yourself?
- Are you alright?
- I said I'm fine.
Why did you have
to climb up there?
Thank God
nothing happened.
Instead of stopping

If the tea's ready,

Yes.
[Lighter click]

Shiva!
[Phone ringing]
[Thunder rumbling]
[Dramatic music]
[Door open]
Shiva.
Mom!
Mom, are you alright?
Mom!
Nothing happened, it's
just a small injury.
You know,
the gas cylinder exploded,
but luckily there wasn't much gas.
Otherwise, it could've
been a big accident.
By God's grace, nothing serious happened,
so why are you scaring him like this?
Why didn't you answer the phone?
I called so many times!
Were you that busy?
I called Sitara at the right time,
that's why we were saved.
she found out and
rushed here right away.
Aunty...
- Thank you.
- Mom, be careful.
I'll help you.
- Leave it, dear.
- Come.
Come on, let's go.
Where were you, Shiva?
I told you already.
You didn't go
to the office.
I already asked Ramesh.
Huh?
I'm asking you only?
Shiva, that day you said
you'd stop all this, didn't you?
So you lied to me?
Do you know what
Mr. Neelakantha Shastri has just said ?
[Phone ringing]
[Exhale deeply]
Hello.
Shiva, where are you?
What happened?
I thought maybe you went off
again to look for that golden urn.
Haven't you
seen the news?
I'm sending it to you on WhatsApp...
check it.
[Message tone]
'Once again, a mysterious incident
in that same village.'
'Ten men who went digging
for the golden urn'
'died under mysterious
circumstances.'
Didn't I tell you
not to go there?
You've seen what happened to the
ones who went, haven't you?
Shiva I'm scared.
[Dramatic music]
Nothing happened
when I was there.
Tch... if I'd been there,
we would've known exactly what went wrong.
Are you mad, Shiva!
Thank God you came back
early otherwise,
I can't even imagine.
Shiva, stop all this right now,
please listen to me.
If you don't,
I'll tell your parents everything.
[Steel utencil falls]
Hey shiva!
[Breathing heavily]
You...
[Sobs]
what's this?
What are you doing?
What happened, Uncle?
What's going on?
What's the matter, huh?
Papa.
Hey!
For years we've stopped you
from taking that path,
and now you
want to walk it?
What are you
talking about?
Yes, you heard me right.
He wants to go back to that same village.
He wants to go back
to that same village!
Careful, Shiva.
[High intense music]
This child...
Drop it,
it'll burn your hands.
- Shiva!
- Move!
Why are you just staring like that?
Your hand will get burned!
Are you mad Shiva!
Dad, who are
these people?
Tell me, who are they?
But why is this
photo in our house?
[Dramatic music]
Dad, I'm asking you!
Who is this kid, Dad?
The child in the
photo... that's you.
What?
Me?
[Rousing music]
Who are these
two people?
Who are these two, Dad?
Tell me, who are they?
And why do we
have this photo?
Tell me, who are these
people in the photo?
Tell me,
Dad who are they?
They are your
real parents, son.
You're joking, right?
My own parents
wanted to kill me?
Mom, these my real...
[Sobs]
[Dramatic music]
Why would my parents
want to kill me?
[Dramatic music]
[Teeth grinding]
Your mother's name is Devi, father is Vasu.
My own brother.
After some years
of marriage,
they still didn't have children.
There wasn't a single temple they didn't visit,
nor a single god they didn't pray to.
After few days later your mother conceived.
"May all your worries fade away,
and may sleep come to you now."
"May all your worries fade away,
and may sleep come to you now''
"For you are my soul,
my dear''
"You are my whole
world, right here''
"You are the very
breath I breathe''
"And no harm will
ever come to you''
"So there is nothing
left to fear."
"Lullaby, sweet lullaby,
your mother sings a lullaby for you''
[Chants]
[Exhale deeply]
[Chuckles]
There's a meaning behind
why the priest was scared...
There are Wealth pots in your house...
Golden pots!
[Chuckles]
Yes, dear.
when you do the rituals
on five new moon nights,
at midnight, in the graveyard,
wearing black clothes
and offering a black
hen with full devotion.
then those wealth
pots will become yours.
Shobha, what's wrong with you?
Do we really need all this now?
You keep quiet...
you don't understand anything.
He gave the money he
earned to his sister.
We'll do exactly
as you say, Priest.
[Chants]
[Chanting mantras]
- Shobha...
- What is it?
Let's stop all
these rituals...
Why are we getting
involved in this?
Just looking at
all this scares me.
What did you say?
Why are you so afraid?
Shobha...
You can't earn
anything anyway!
Have you seen everyone
in the village?
They've built huge
houses in the city.
When God shows a way,
instead of using it...
You keep saying
you're scared, scared!
If we go back to the village,
we'll lose our respect in front of everyone.
Listen carefully...
I want that gold,
no matter what.
I'll do anything
to get it.
Even If you stand in
my way, I'll kill you.
Shobha...
Quiet.
Just do as I say.
We've finished
all the rituals.
On the next new moon day,
we can start digging.
Yes...
But the only one who can tell where
the gold pots are hidden in the house
must be someone born
under the Arudra star,
with blue eyes,
and they must be from
your own bloodline.
[knock]
[High beat music]
[Fire crackling]
Ask your sister
to come to our house.
How can we ask her now?
She's already in her eighth month,
Travelling isn't good at this time.
I don't care.
- Do something and bring her here.
- Devi...
Devi...
What happened,
brother-in-law?
Devi slipped
and fell down.
Is she okay?
Yes, she's fine.
See, it's happened
just like I said!
What is it?
What happened?
They say their ancestors
didn't perform some rituals properly.
That's why...
The priest said there could be danger
for the unborn child.
A priest said..
What are you saying,
Shobha?
Oh no...
What should we do now?
Don't worry, brother.
The priest suggested
a solution.
He said Devi should come to her parents'
house and perform a small ritual.
Then everything
will be fine.
Tell them.
Yes, brother-in-law.
Listen to me...
Travelling now?
She's fully pregnant!
Vasu...
Then let's go.
[Chants]
What's all this,
brother in-law?
What's happening here?
This is the ritual I mentioned earlier,
brother.
To protect the mother and child,
we must first calm Goddess Kalika Goddess.
Come quickly, Devi.
Change your saree and sit for the ritual.
It's getting late..
What should I do?
I thought the ritual meant
a homam (fire ceremony)...
Who is he?
- what are all these rangoli designs for,
- brother?
This is how the
ritual must be done.
We're all
here with you.
Otherwise, they say the unborn
baby could be in danger.
Balraj...
Time is running out.
Get Devi and Shobha ready
for the ritual quickly.
Alright, Swami.
- Shobha...
- Yes...
Take Devi inside quickly,
change her saree and bring her back.
Don't be scared, Devi.
Everything will
be fine for us.
Come on...
Come on...
Brother-in-law...
[Chants]
- What is happening here?
- Don't be afraid. Look over there.
They've arrived.
Devi,
- Be careful, dear...
- Sit down...
- Brother-in-law.
- Yes, sister-in-law, everything is fine.
- Be careful.
- There's water on the floor.
Shoba, be careful.
[Chants]
[Chanting mantras]
- Shobha...
- Yes, Swami ji.
Take these two lemons,
both of you.
Okay, Swami ji.
Take this, Devi.
[Chants]
Now close your eyes until
I tell you to open them.
[Chants]
[Chanting mantras]
It will be over devi..
Don't be scared.
Burn these turmeric roots,
rub them on the board below,
and apply the oil from
that friction onto your wives' eyes.
Oh, Get up,
Brother-in-law,
Apply it to
the Devi's eyes.
Come.
- Come, brother-in-law. Sit here.
- You both come over here.
[Chants]
[Chanting mantras]
Devi, Open your eyes,
look in all directions.
Tell me what you see,
[Dramatic music]
Devi,
is there anything?
Tell me what you see.
Large golden pots...
Filled with jeweler,
coins, and diamonds.
[Laughing]
Balraj, your house is filled
with wealth pots,
What's this?
Brother-in-law, what are these wealth pots?
You brought us here for ritual right?
This is also part of the ritual,
It's almost done, Just two minutes.
Balraj, no, Balraj.
- Wait, brother-in-law.
- No, Balraj.
Just two minutes.
Devi, devi..
look at me..
look here..
Devi, look here.
Devi can you hear me?
[Chants]
[Yells in pain]
Balraj
No, devi..
Balraj, the ritual must
not be stopped in the middle.
Devi..
- Control yourself.
- Okay, okay. Okay, Swami.
- Vasu.. I'm hurting..
- Don't worry, let's go..
Be careful
- Vasu..
- Be careful
Vasu..
[chants]
[Yells in pain]
Be careful
- Vasu.. I'm hurting..
- Devi, nothing will happen
Be careful, Devi
- Devi, nothing will happen, don't worry..
- Vasu..
Balraj! Balraj,
devi is in pain.
Come quickly.
We have to take her to the hospital.
Yes, yes. I'm coming.
Do something vasu..
- Be patient devi..
- Vasu.. I'm hurting..
Shobha please
come here..
Devi's labour
pain has started.
She is unable
to bear the pain.
At least, you come.
I'll go outside to see if anyone
can come to help.
I'll be back soon.
I'll be back soon.
Vasu..
[Chants]
Balraj, after offering
the black hen as a sacrifice,
mix the rice in her blood
through Shoba's hands.
Place the pumpkin
wherever it was cut.
[Dramatic music]
Brother..
Devi..
don't be
scared sister..
[Chants]
[Chants]
Brother..
Devi, I'm coming.
coming.
Shobha open your
eyes and look there..
Tell me Shobha,
what do you see?
Tell me Shobha,
what do you see?
Four black shadows are
moving toward the food,
devouring it with
terrible hunger.
[Laughing]
Balraj start
digging there.
[Chants]
[Digging sound]
Mother,
help her quickly..
Mother, look at
my wife's condition.
Quickly, look.
Vasu..
Look, mother, see her.
Let's take her
to a nearby hospital.
There's no time
to go to hospital,
She's going to deliver
the baby here itself.
Bring some
cloth quickly.
We have to do
the deliver here,
Do something mother..
- Don't panic, daughter.
- It's paining.
Have a little courage.
[Digging sound]
Take it..
Devi, don't worry,
everything will be fine.
[Digging sound]
[Breathing heavily]
Sacrifice is
not enough,
Balraj
Bring the goat
and offer it.
Devi! Devi! Bear it for a little while, Amma.
It's nothing, it's nothing! I'm right here!
I'm right next to you.
[Goat bleat]
[Owl hooting]
[Crow caw]
[Dog howling]
[Bats screech]
[Owl hooting]
Shobha! What do you
see there? Tell me!
A woman with six hands,
covered all over in gold.
[Dramatic music]
Large eyes!
In one hand a sword,
in the other a skull.
A vessel filled
with blood!
She's screaming
in a fierce form.
[Demon screaming]
[Screams]
Dhana Pisaachini!
[Demon screaming]
[Groaning]
[Screams]
Dhana Pisaachini!
Kaali! Kaali Raksha!
[chants]
Balraj, Dhana Pisaachini has arrived.
Mother!
This sacrifice
is not enough!
This sacrifice
is not enough!
This sacrifice
is not enough?
Sacrifice!
You want more
sacrifice, mother?
[Teeth grinding]
[Demon grunts]
[Thunder rumbling]
She needs bull.
We must offer a bull's sacrifice to get wealth.
Go
Otherwise, we will all fall prey
to the bloodthirst of that wealth demoness.
- Go and bring a bull, quickly.
- Yes, Swami ji.
[Yells in pain]
Devi
Everything is fine..
Now... What do you
see there? Tell me...
She's drinking blood,
Did she accept
the sacrifice?
Did she accept
the sacrifice?
This sacrifice isn't enough.
Give me an even bigger sacrifice!
[Demon screaming]
[Yells in pain]
Devi...
[Baby crying]
[Thunder rumbling]
Human sacrifice!
She needs that.
[Demon laughing]
[Dramatic music]
[Demon laughing]
Sacrifice!
[Demon laughing]
Human sacrifice,
she needs that.
Balraj, bring the baby quickly
and sacrifice the baby.
Hurry up...
Bring the baby!
Otherwise,
we'll all die here...
Bring that child here.
[Demon laughing]
Brother-in-law,
give me the baby.
- Oh God!
- We have to sacrifice.
If we sacrifice the baby,
all that gold will be ours!
- Brother-in-law, give me the baby.
- Have you gone mad? You're going to sacrifice the baby?
- Have you gone mad, brother?
- Brother-in-law.
Will you offer a new born baby
as a sacrifice?
- No, Devi... it's not that,
- Shucks!
If we don't,
we all will be killed.
What about the child, Devi?
We'll give birth again.
- No need.
- Brother-in-law!
- Give me the baby.
- Balraj, bring the baby here!
- Balraj, bring him quickly!
- Have you gone mad?
Brother-in-law!
Give me the baby.
Mother,
take care of the child!
How could you sacrifice your own sister's baby?
I want human sacrifice.
Let's go, let's go.
Brother-in-law,
listen to me.
How could you sacrifice
your own sister's baby?
Devi ..
[Dramatic music]
[Demon screaming]
The ritual has
been interrupted...
If you don't offer the sacrifice I asked for,
the wealth demoness will not spare us!
They've escaped...
You want a sacrifice?
Sacrifice..!
You want a human
sacrifice, right?
Fine ? I'll give it.
Take it!
Is the sacrifice
enough now?
- Is it not enough?
- Sacrifice..!
Do you want more?
Do you want more?
Do you want
more sacrifice?
This isn't enough!
This sacrifice
too isn't enough!
This sacrifice
too isn't enough?
What do you want?
Whom do you want !
Do you want my blood?
Do you want my blood!
Tell me, take it.
[High intense music]
Your uncle and aunt were trying to perform
a divine ritual with a tantric to obtain a golden pot,
but due to an evil force,
their lives were lost.
The priest of that village revealed
all this to everyone.
From thar day on, the wealth demoness began
her terrifying rampage in the village.
The wealth demoness's blood thirst started
taking the lives of everyone in the village.
[Teeth grinding]
[Scary intense music]
the whole village has
turned into graveyard
[Car crash]
[Coin clanking]
[High beat music]
"You defeat ghosts, spirits,
and destroy evil beings."
"You hold divine justice
and playful pride"
"From the Yakshini lineage,
master of spells, you cleanse all sins"
"You carry divine essence
and are the embodiment of Shakti"
"Like the third eye itself, you take form,
in the battlefield,"
"You descend personally to fight"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful force over riches!"
"You are the curse of the greedy,
the selfish tremble in fear before you"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful force over riches!"
"Goddess, you remove all darkness,
we are your devoted worshippers"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful force over riches!"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful force over riches!"
[Teeth grinding]
"Smeared in blood-red vermilion,"
"Who removes all evil"
"Fierce queen, she roars wielding
her divine weapons"
"A divine incarnation"
"Who growls in
the face of death"
"Her rage is unstoppable,
the greedy tremble before her"
"Like the third eye itself, she takes form,
in the battlefield,"
"She descends
herself to fight"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful goddess of riches!"
"You are the destroyer of the greedy,
the selfish tremble in fear at your name"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful goddess of riches!"
"Goddess, you wipe away all darkness,
we are your humble devotees"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful goddess of riches!"
"O spirit of wealth!
O powerful goddess of riches!"
no one had an idea
how to get out of it
The whole village believed that the cause of
that death was the power of that dark power.
people blamed it on
dark power, and slowly,
everyone began
to leave the village.
[Chime toy sound]
What happened,
my child?
[Cutting vegetable]
- Devi.
- [Gasp]
What are you doing?
Have you gone mad?
I was supposed to be over there,
how did I end up here?
What were you doing
with the knife?
Oh, my baby!
[Rain pouring]
- Devi.
- [Gasp]
[Thunder rumbling]
- "Laali lo... laali lo"
- [Sobs]
"Moon , lull our
little one to sleep."
"Moonlight , lull our
little one to sleep."
"My dear, sleep."
"Moon , lull our
little one to sleep."
Vasu!
Oh God!
What are you doing?
I was trying to make
him sleep in the cradle
"Like the moon, you
spread your light..."
"...but that serpent
lies in wait."
"The hand meant to bless has fallen
upon the throat."
"The eye meant to protect now leads onto swords."
"What sin did we commit..."
...to become a curse upon you?"
"Oh, the lullaby...
the lullaby"
[Kerosene pouring]
[Fire crackling]
Son.
All these years it is our responsibility
to protect you, but now,
it's your responsibility
to respect their sacrifice.
At least for their sake
stay alive. Please.
[Crickets chirping]
It means,
this is Shiva's house?
[Soft music]
[Door open]
[Soft music]
[Dramatic music]
[EMF machine beeping]
[EMF machine beeping]
Mom and Dad if you are here,
just give me one blink.
[EMF machine beeping]
Hey did you see this?
Sitara have you? Mom
and Dad can I see you?
Hey, didn't you
say about poltergeist?
At least can
I feel you?
[Toy sound]
[Sobs]
It's okay, Shiva.
[EMF machine beeping]
[Temple bell]
What happened?
Since I was a kid, I've
been chasing spirits,
Look at my destiny,
My mom and dad were the
first spirits I ever saw.
When you were born, Shiva,
in that very house in Rudraram,
the binding spell of the wealth demoness
guarding the treasure was broken,
and that led
to her rebirth.
From that moment,
the problems began,
right, Shiva?
This isn't the first time
death has followed you,
[Dramatic music]
[Tire sreech]
Then if that wealth demoness
lives in that house,
what are all these
things happening here?
Any living being
with a dark influence,
whether human or animal
can be controlled
by the wealth demoness.
This demoness is a dark corner
in Lord Brahma's creation,
Among their kinds,
these demoness
are the most powerful
beings after the Asuras.
Are you saying such bindings and
their rituals still exist even today?
Why not?
Have you heard about the Anantha
Padmanabha Swamy Temple in Kerala?
Out of the six secret vaults
in the temple, five have been opened,
but everyone who tried to open
the last vault died mysteriously.
Not just that?around the same time,
devastating floods swept across Kerala.
Because of this, the Supreme Court ordered
that the final vault must not be opened,
as it is sealed with a
serpent binding spell.
This serpent binding is the same
as the wealth demoness binding,
Whatever kind of
binding it may be,
how can it demand
the innocent baby's sacrifice ?
When Shiva was still
in his mother's womb,
that time, even Devi
was a part of the ritual.
you could say Shiva himself took part
in the worship.
As for why the demoness demanded
the baby's sacrifice...
It's in her nature as a demoness to demand
sacrifices that we cannot easily give.
Then, is there a way
to escape from this danger?
it's a matter
of real concern.
For all these years, the power of the wealth
demoness has been steadily growing,
now the time has come
to it reach its peak.
On the first Sunday
of next month,
during the lunar eclipse,
your test begins.
Until now, the force that has
protected you from every danger, Shiva,
is the strength
of your guiding power.
[Thunder rumbling]
do you know who
that guiding power is?
It's the sacrifice of your parents,
who gave their lives to save yours.
[Tire sreech]
[Dog barks]
Hey, how many times have I called you?
Why don't you pick up the phone, man?
Are you that busy?
It's a good thing
I called that girl on time.
Their love is so great,
that even after death,
they're protecting their child
like the apple of their eye.
It means,
Papa.
[Sobs]
on the day of their death anniversary
no crow came,
no matter how
long I waited...
Because as long as
Shiva's life is in danger,
their souls will
never find peace,
they can never
be reborn.
But the crisis
that is coming...
even the power of guiding
power won't be enough for you, Shiva.
From this moment until
that fateful time,
whatever you do, you'll
have to do it alone.
You'll have to fight
this battle on your own.
You said correct sir,
Spirits exist.
The ones I saw
were my mom and dad.
That's good, Shiva.
Read this...
God will show
you the right path.
Is this for
body building?
What's this?
it's so long?
What's this?
This is called
a Tesla coil.
It transfers
energy wirelessly.
You want to see
how it works?
Yes.
Different metals have
different properties.
which generates energy
In the same way, the idols in temples
are made from different metals,
Each metal has its
own unique property.
The five elements respond
to sound vibrations.
When the frequency of the mantras chanted
in the temple interacts with those metals,
positive energy is generated
at that very moment.
You must have
heard about this ?
When the Lingam
manifested in Arunachalam,
the eight guardians
of the directions,
the eight directions,
and the Ashtadisha Lingas
all guided and took part
in its consecration ceremony.
In a way, Tesla coil represents
Arunachalam's Shiv Ling.
The heat energy present there transforms
into positive energy.
Just like there is positive energy,
there is also negative energy.
In your case, let's consider
the wealth demoness as negative energy.
The temple holds positive energy.
If these two are brought together...
Energy can neither be
created nor destroyed,
but can be neutralized.
[High beat music]
Where the wealth
demoness resides,
there Eight Lingas made
from eight sacred metals must be.
In the East
- Indra Linga,
In the Southeast
- Agni Linga,
In the South
- Yama Linga,
In the Southwest
- Nairuti Linga,
In the West
- Varuna Linga,
In the Northwest
- Vayu Linga,
In the North
- Kubera Linga.
In the northeast
- Eshanya linga
[High beat music]
[Door close]
Mummy?
- Open the door, Mom.
- [Knock on door]
What happened?
- He wants to go to that same house...
- Papa!
At least you open
the door, Dad... Dad...
Dad...
Open the door, papa.
If you go to that house,
I swear on myself!
But Mom...
Alright.
[Exhale deeply]
So you believe the
wealth demoness right?
[Sobs]
Yes, that's why we are stopping you
from going there.
It means you believe
in my death too.
If that's not the case,
then I'll stay here.
Can you say for sure
that I'll be alive?
[Sobs]
[Door open]
[Sobs]
You think I'm going
there to save myself?
No... I'm going
for my parents' peace.
[Sobs]
You know why they perform
prayers every year for the dead, right?
If a person dies
with dissatisfaction,
that same unfulfilled desire
shouldn't be carried into next life.
Don't my parents deserve
another new life?
You want to stop me,
even after knowing all this?
We should fight dad,
we have to fight until win, Dad
or till death.
I got a chance no one else ever had,
To give my parents a rebirth.
[chants]
Take this.
He may not
be my own son,
but he's dearer
to me than a real son.
All these years,
we've protected and cared for him...
But now, Swami,
he wants to walk straight into death.
Do you know why Lord Shiva,
who has his own abode in Kailasa,
wears vibhuti and lives
in the cremation ground?
After a person dies and
the cremation rituals are over,
everyone leaves the
body alone and goes away.
Seeing the soul grieving in that moment,
"I will stay with you until
your last rites are complete,"
Giving courage,
staying close, supporting her
this Great Lord.
- Does that mean...
- What happened, dear?
Why are you scared?
[Laughs]
There's no
need to fear.
After death, those who support,
like Maha Shiv,
when Dharmaraj Yama came
to take the life of His devoted Priya,
Markandeya, chanting
the Mrityunjay mantra,
embraced the Shiva
Lingam around his neck.
At that moment, Shiva emerged
from the Lingam in a fierce form,
defeated the God
of Death himself,
and protected
Markandeya's life?
Maha Mrityunjay Shiv!
When the river Ganga rose
fiercely towards the earth,
the whole world trembled,
unsure of what would happen,
it was Lord Shiva,
the Jatadhari,
The one who
saves this world
He is the one
who endures.
O Lord!
Just the sight of a snake
is enough to be scared
but he wears a poisonous
serpent around his neck.
He sits upon
a tiger skin,
holds a trident blazing
like a million suns,
with just the opening of his third eye,
he can turn everything to ash.
you worship such a Lord with devotion,
afraid of death?
Is death greater
than Shiva?
To walk towards death,
yes, that may lead to death.
But to sit at home in fear of death,
that is not truly living.
Let him go...
Hail Lord shiva.

"May my mind find constant joy and devotion in Lord Shiva,
who wears the young crescent moon upon His head."
"He is the beautiful, delightful companion of the
Daughter of the King of Mountains (Parvati)."
"His mind is filled with joy as the universe
expands and flourishes in all directions."
"His compassionate side-glance flows like a stream,
stopping even the most difficult hardships."
"May my mind find happiness in that Divine Being
who wears the directions themselves as clothing (Digambara)."
"He shines with the reddish light reflecting from
the gem on the hood of the serpent in his matted hair."
"The faces of the maidens (goddesses) of the directions
are smeared with multi-colored saffron marks because of Him."
"He looks magnificent wearing the glittering skin of a huge,
intoxicated elephant as an upper garment."
"May my mind find wonderful joy in the Lord
and Sustainer of all living beings."
"Salutations to Shiva,
the auspicious one."
"Salutations to Shiva,
the auspicious one."
"Salutations to Shiva,
the auspicious one."
"Shivaya Nama Shivaya!"
"Shivaya Nama Shivaya!"
"Shivaya Nama Shivaya!"
"Shivaya Nama Shivaya!"
"Shivaya Nama Shivaya!"
