Plot
Following up to events from the earlier film, Bahubuthayo, Lanti and Bunty are working as journalists. Tikiri, an evil spirit, comes looking for Lanti and Bunty. The three end up living together while Tikiri does their work.[7]
After the publication of a misleading news item relating to a minister, the minister comes to the house where Bunty and Lanti live and beats them. The minister thinks Tikiri is beautiful, and takes her by force to work in his ministry office. He changes Tikiri's name as Tikri and falls with her. Due to parental pressure, Bunty soon marries a girl named Malkanthi. He discovers he is not well matched with his wife and they frequently quarrel until Malkanthi leaves him.[8][9]
Meanwhile, Tikiri rejects advances from the minister and returns to the house where Bunty and Lanty live. From there, further problems develop as the journalists must discover what it will take to get rid of the she-devil in their home.[7][8]
