Story In Detail

IAS officer Chanchal Gupta (Bhumi Pednekar), is serving a jail sentence for the murder of her fiancé Shakti (Karan Kapadia). Enter CBI officer Satakshi Ganguly (Mahie Gill) who wants Chanchal to spill the secrets of a powerful minister Ishwar Prasad (Arshad Warsi) as she believes the politician is a wolf in the sheep's clothing. Since Chanchal was associated with Ishwar Prasad in the past, Satakshi believes she can be the 'Vibhishan' in his Lanka.

With the help of Shakti's brother ACP Abhay Singh (Jisshu Sengupta), Satakshi decides to interrogate Chanchal in a haunted haveli (the infamous Durgamati haveli) to keep the investigation under wraps. However, as Chanchal steps from one eerie room to another in the palace, peering through dust-laden mirrors, secret alleyways and larger-than-life paintings, she soon realizes that there is more to this than meets the eye.
