When Trishna was eighteen, she saw something she was never meant to see. Deep in her family's basement, a pair of glowing eyes watched her from the darkness. Moments later, she discovered her father's lifeless body. Terrified and broken, Trishna fled her hometown of Dakhara, vowing never to return. Twenty years later, her past calls her back. Following her mother's death, Trishna returns to the house she once escaped, accompanied by her two teenage children, Varun and Jia. As she struggles to hold herself together, memories resurface-of grief, fear, and the night that changed everything. Adding to the emotional turmoil is the unexpected return of Dr. Inder, her former boyfriend, whose presence stirs unresolved feelings and unanswered questions. But the house has been waiting too. Unbeknownst to Trishna, something dark has remained hidden in the basement all these years-watching, growing stronger, and feeding on the family's sorrow. As old secrets begin to unravel and strange events escalate, Trishna realizes that leaving once did not end the nightmare. Because some horrors do not fade with time. It waits.
