Plot
In a rural village, Buttu, a struggling fish farmer, lives with his mother, Ratnamala, a sorceress. Yearning for better prospects elsewhere, Buttu is unable to leave due to financial constraints. Rinki, the village doctor's daughter, is in love with him. One night, while returning home, Buttu is possessed by the ghost of Amari (played by a National School of Drama, Delhi alumnus), a villager murdered by the community. The possession triggers a chain of eerie and suspenseful events, as the ghost-inhabited Buttu interacts with Rinki and Ratnamala, creating moments of fear and mystery. The film concludes with an open-ended resolution, hinting at a possible sequel.[6]
