Indian director Subrata Sen’s second feature film is a modern-day fairy tale set against a backdrop of contemporary India, which takes up the age-old conflict between good and evil. The protagonists are Shomeo and Siddharta and their friend Turni. Since the death of her parents, Turni has lived in her grandfather’s old house. Lately the house and its operations have been taken over by a charlatan named Tantra who is masquerading as a holy man. His goal is to gain the house for himself by manipulating the residents. Tantra even has an ally – Turni’s aunt Jogini. Shomeo and Siddharta, who are versed in magic, recognize the danger and decide to warn Turni. At first Turni doesn’t believe them, but later, when she notes how the charlatan’s influence is growing, she realizes that she was mistaken. Jogini even begins forcing Turni to become “initiated.” Luckily Shomeo and Siddharta arrive in time to settle the score with Tantra and save Turni. Turni hopes to be able to start a new life with Shomeo (whom she now loves), but he’s decided to set out to find “true magic.” Siddharta stays and it seems as if he might become Turni’s better half.
