Darkness.
Just darkness.
All around.
No courage.
No hope.
I was scared just like you are.
And then…
I found the answer.
No more fear. No pain.
No depression.
I was free… finally.
Isn't that what you want?
Come.
I'll show you the answer.
Don't hold yourself back.
Just let go.
Surrender, Bani.
Surrender to me.
Prithvi.
What happened?
The number you're calling is currently switched off.
Please try later.
Hello.
-Yeah, Dad. -Hello?
I just reached the office.
Hello, Bani.
Hello?
Hello, Dad?
What office?
You are lying!
Why are you saying that, Dad?
I know everything.
You are a sex worker.
You ruined everything.
If you have any shame, then go kill yourself.
Bani, are you alright?
What happened?
Bani?
Hello? Bani, what happened?
Why are you silent?
Bani!
No!
Jai Hind, madam.
-Let me take that. -I'll hand over the file and come.
The thing about the government is,
they keep making new rules.
But people like us have to deal with them.
Like this one…
If there's a crime against a woman,
verification by a female officer is mandatory.
Why? Don't I know my job?
I have got a better idea.
Just like men and women have separate toilets,
there should be separate police stations.
So it's clear to everyone
where they want to go to relieve themselves.
Jay Hind, sir.
Jay Hind, Kadam.
Statement from the actor's wife, Sanjana Reddy.
She used to source the drugs for her husband.
She confessed.
Is it?
Finally!
Must be one of Kadam's rapid-fire rounds.
No wonder she confessed.
You should quit the force.
Start your own talk show.
Koffee with Kadam.
Kadam, there's a missing person's case.
A girl has gone missing.
Her name is Bani Baruah.
Naik has completed the investigation.
There is no foul play. But her father isn't convinced.
He shows up every day.
He is waiting outside as we speak.
His daughter is a prostitute.
Naik, stop saying prostitute.
Call her a sex worker.
Showing everyone respect is mandatory nowadays.
Call her what you like.
It doesn't change what she was.
Kadam, I feel this needs…
a feminine touch.
Just speak to her father.
Make him understand. And then sign Naik's report.
You see, a female police officer's sign-off is necessary
to close the case.
Okay?
Do it.
Yes, sir.
Don't worry, she'll sign it.
You saw that girl…
and then?
She…
was standing by the window.
And then…
Suicide?
She did not jump willingly.
It was as if some force pulled her out of the window.
Force?
Who forced her?
It was a shadow.
Whose shadow?
It wasn't a human shadow.
Imagine darkness.
But alive and breathing.
What the fuck?
What the fuck am I talking about?
It's okay. Don't rationalize. Keep talking.
Be in touch with whatever is coming up.
That darkness was alive.
It was moving on its own.
It sucked the girl out of the window.
Why would she leave abruptly like this?
Without informing anyone.
We are close as a family.
She doesn't keep secrets from us.
Did she tell you she's an escort?
Why did she lie about working in a call center?
Uncle, look,
we followed every procedure there is in a missing person's case.
No result.
Then there's Bani's mental health--
Yes, she's bipolar.
And she's an escort.
But she is my daughter.
Doesn't she deserve an investigation?
Did I say that?
All I'm saying is that the report doesn't indicate any foul play.
Then why did she scream?
I kept saying "hello,"
but there was no response from her end.
-She screamed? -Yes.
-On the phone? -Of course.
There's no mention of it in the report.
I clearly told Inspector…
Naik about it.
The girl in your nightmare…
Do you know her?
Jay, the shadow
could be a manifestation of your dark thoughts.
I'm an MBBS student.
Carl Jung and his concept of shadow.
I know.
These nightmares, these dreams,
do you think they have any connection with the accident?
Why do you keep bringing up the accident?
What more do you want to know?
I've told you everything. I don't remember anything else.
Don't remember, or…
are you actively trying to forget?
Your dreams and nightmares started after the accident.
Perhaps the accident is what triggered them.
All you need to do is talk about your accident, Jay.
You know what?
I am done!
Jay.
That was the last one.
I made a bet. You wouldn't sign.
I lost the bet.
Here.
How was your session with Dr. Aziz?
This was the last one.
I won't go there again.
How else will you get better?
On your own?
At least do a few sessions with him.
At least give it a chance.
Why haven't you been eating properly lately?
Look how much food's leftover again.
Because you made Prithvi's share…
again.
Hurry up.
What's the rush?
Because the guests are waiting…
We need the CCTV footage
from the night of the incident and a week before that.
We don't have the footage, ma'am.
There was a fire in the server room that night.
We had to call the fire brigade.
Everything was charred.
Naik sir knows, ma'am.
Kanitkar, get a report from the fire department.
Yes, madam.
Do you like dogs?
-Dog? -Excuse me?
Bloodhounds?
They're made for hunting.
Once they catch a scent,
they never forget.
KK madam here…
is exactly like a bloodhound.
If she bites,
I guarantee
even your Naik sir won't have a cure.
Was this glass newly installed?
Come on.
Was this glass… newly installed?
Madam, that very night,
the firefighters had to break it, so…
Quite a lot seems to have happened that night.
I guess we'll have to talk to the rest of the staff.
Kanitkar, get the guest list from that night.
-Right, ma'am. -But Naik sir--
Come on.
Remember what I said?
Bloodhound.
Kanitkar, that camera is outside the hotel premises, right?
Get me that footage.
A colonoscopy helps us detect IBD.
This is a case of ulcerative colitis.
Hi, guys! Welcome to the world of the paranormal,
with me, Rumi, in my new show, Into the Darkness,
only on my Vlog TV channel, Unseen Supernatural Club.
Stop everything and look around, guys.
Isn't this world becoming a darker place?
Hope is fading away. Violent crimes are growing.
What if I told you that there is more to this?
What if I told you that this darkness isn't normal,
but paranormal?
Our ignorance is the darkness's biggest strength.
We tend to ignore it,
but it's watching us.
Even now.
What will the colonoscopy show?
What will the colonoscopy show?!
Knowing it is like going inside a dark tunnel.
A place where the sun or its rays can't reach.
Weird shit, right?
Once you see it, you cannot unsee it.
Hey! Where are you going?
Come on, one more…
What are you doing? Take this.
Come on, guys! Come on.
Catch!
Sister.
His mom wanted to see you.
-About what? -He's possessed by cricket.
Needs to be exorcised.
Hey! Throw the ball.
-Hello. How are you? -I am good.
So look straight into its eye.
Without being scared. No fear.

Just look around, and you'll see.
A lot of things like domestic violence, road rage,
catastrophes, and a spike in suicides…
Often, these events are accompanied by supernatural experiences
or unexplained sightings.
There are several examples.
Like the sighting of the Nain Rouge demon during the Detroit riots.
Then, during the Australian bushfires,
there was the Krampus demon. There are numerous examples.
And personally, I believe--
I don't know. Call it gut, instinct, or sixth sense,
but there is a strange presence in Mumbai as we speak.
So, if anyone has experienced anything paranormal,
please chip in.
Who wants to go first?
And we have a new member raising his hand.
Jay Sheth.
Hi, Jay. Thanks for joining Unseen Supernatural Club.
-We are all listening. -Please stop this right now!
Calling people's psychological issues
and their mental illness paranormal phenomena. For what?
Subscribers, content, likes? How sick are you?
Dude, you know what is sick?
When you have a paranormal experience but you can't share it
because you're afraid people will judge you or make fun of you.
Calling these experiences mental illness is sick,
you close-minded ignorant fuck.
Don't talk rubbish.
Anyone else?
Madam.
Bani's call records.
Did you speak with the hotel staff?
Any luck?
All parroting the same script.
Like a broken record.
Dolly.
Just a moment, madam.
Hello.
Don't keep calling me.
The number you've dialed is switched off.
Please try again later.
How will you learn if you don't practice?
Come on, let's go.
People break a coconut when they buy a new car.
And you want a broken headlight?
Relax.
We have this.
Our good luck insurance.
What happened?
Did you have a nightmare?
Don't want to go to college today?
Don't go if you don't feel up to it.
Rest it out.
I'm fine, Mom. Just let me be.
I've made breakfast. Eat it.
And don't forget to take your medicine.
Son, have it on time. Okay?
Don't forget.
Bye.
Dr. Prithvi Sheth.
Have you ever heard Bani mention his name?
No.
Uncle, the day she disappeared,
Bani made 13 calls to him.
She never spoke about him.
Can I take a look at Bani's room?
Yes, of course. In here.
What is…
"Aatma"?
Bani used to go there for therapy.
She found it helpful.
Let's go, Kanitkar.
Come out.
They've left.
Come out.
Feels like I'm abroad.
Hello.
-Hello. -I am Chaitanya Sharma.
Managing Director, Aatma Healing.
Shall we?
Please come.
This is Ayesha ji,
our chief wellness consultant.
She will assist you.
Okay?
-Sure. -Excuse me.
Please, take a seat.
There is a missing person case.
She is a student of yours. Bani Baruah.
Let me check.
It's been four months.
Bani Baruah has not come here.
Have you seen him around here?
Dr. Prithvi Sheth.
No.
There is nobody called Prithvi here.
Details on Bani's instructor and her batchmates?
Sure, let me get that for you.
There is a student, Bani Baruah.
I need the particulars of all students from her batch. Yeah.
Somebody is on it. It will take some time.
Until then, would you like something?
Green tea or something?
-No. -Tea.
-Sure. -Tea…
One tea.
Normal tea. Strong.
Anything else?
Biscuits?
Of course.
And biscuits.
Dolly forbids drinking tea on an empty stomach…
Just a minute.
Hello. Yes, Shinde.
Do you teach meditation here?
It's not meditation.
It's much more than that.
It's much more technical. It's called ATEM.
Advanced Tech-Enabled Mindfulness.
In fact, we also conduct therapy workshops for cops.
Special therapy.
Would you like to try it sometime?
I have no interest in therapy.
Who does?
We just need it sometimes. All of us.
Anyway, here's my card,
in case you change your mind.
Madam.
Prithvi Sheth's address has been found.
Thank you for the cooperation.
JAY SHETH: CAN DARKNESS COME ALIVE?
Jay Sheth?
RUMI: WHY DO YOU ASK?
JAY SHETH: BECAUSE… I'VE SEEN IT WITH MY OWN EYES.
DARKNESS SWALLOWED HER.
Had this been some actor's or politician's daughter,
the police would have given their undivided attention.
Why do you feel that the police aren't taking it seriously?
No one can find her.
Bani is gone.
It took her.
Who?
"The darkness."
It devoured my daughter.
Look at her plight.
How she grieves for her missing daughter.
Is this Prithvi Sheth's residence?
Why?
What happened?
Can we come inside?
He's not home.
You can't barge in like this without a warrant.
Where are you going?
Excuse me, what is this about?
I've said that there is no one else at home.
Can you tell me what's wrong? What exactly are you looking for?
How can you barge into someone's house like this?
This is bullshit!
Madam, there is no one else at home.
Check his laptop, phone, smartwatch, and everything else.
What for?
Excuse me. Can you tell me what's wrong?
What is your name?
Jay Sheth.
Are you Prithvi's brother?
Where is he?
I told you he isn't here.
I can see that.
Where are your parents?
-Why? -Just answer the question.
Where are your parents?
-Mom is at the office. -And your father?
Is this Prithvi's?
The laptop and phone are mine. Please give it back.
Bring Prithvi to the police station and collect your things.
You cannot harass me like this.
-What is wrong? -Hey!
Do you know her?
Is she Prithvi's girlfriend?
I don't know who she is.
I said I don't know.
What is going on here?
Jay?
We want to meet Prithvi Sheth. Are you his mother?
Yes, but…
Prithvi? Why?
Do you know her?
Have you ever seen her with Prithvi?
She has been missing for a month,
and we think Prithvi is involved in her disappearance.
That's not possible.
Why?
How long has he been like this?
One month.
Since June 22nd.
Twenty-third…
I'm sorry.
Wait a minute. My laptop.
Return his laptop.
Prithvi's tablet and phone as well.
They will be returned once we've checked them.
Call us if Prithvi wakes up.
Let's go.
What now, madam?
Bani went missing on June 23rd.
He's been lying here since the 22nd.
Now what?
Did you notice how Bani's picture shocked Prithvi's brother?
Put Tawde on his tail.
Let's go.
Madam, here's the report from the fire department.
Madam, don't you find it strange?
Naik didn't follow up on any of this?
Kadam.
What's the update on Bani Baruah's file?
I was too busy to read it.
What is there to read? She was a lunatic.
The entire family is crazy.
Her mother is also a lunatic.
That is why her father never brings her along.
What did Gokhale sir say?
Sign it and shut it.
I'll do it when I am free.
What's the hurry?
He's not wrong, though. She does look crazy.
I guess she's having an episode.
This isn't madness. It is fear.
Fear?
I know this fear.
Jay Sheth?
Yeah, hi.
Do you mind if I eat? I'm damn hungry.
UNCLE
So?
You mentioned something about the darkness in your video.
I've seen that darkness… take Bani.
Were you there that night?
I mean… it was a dream.
A nightmare.
A dream?
Dude, I've been stalked online.
I've also received explicit pictures, but this dream business is too much.
Wait.
No, you're misunderstanding me. I am not lying.
I've seen the darkness in reality as well.
22nd June.
My brother and I met with an accident.
That night, I saw the darkness with my own eyes.
And the next day, on 23rd June,
I saw the same darkness claiming Bani in my dream.
I can't understand what's going on.
Why is it happening?
Who to talk to? Who'd believe me?
That's why I contacted you.
Tell me more about this accident.
Prithvi!
After the accident, I blacked out.
Prithvi?
Prith--
Prithvi?
Prithvi!
Prithvi?
Brother!
Get up. Look at me.
No…
Prithvi?
No!
Listen, I really need your help.
I need to understand why this is happening to me.
This darkness. What does it all mean?
I don't understand anything.
I think Bani and Prithvi are connected somehow.
How? I need to figure that out.
You…
Bani's mom…
Can you take me to see her?
Please, can you help?
Please.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Tomorrow.
Get in the car.
What's happening?
You know what's happening, Jay.
-Why did you do it, Jay? -I didn't do anything.
You can lie to the world,
lie to yourself,
but the darkness…
knows everything, Jay.
Prithvi! ything, Jay.
