Who's over there?

Who is it?

Is anyone there?

Who's there?

Mayong, in India it is known as the capital of black magic.

Who can say that this beautiful city is set on the banks of the river Brahmaputra

in the state of Assam is famous in the whole world for it's black magic.

It's said that Mayong got it's name because of this reason.

Because it's a city of spells.

At every house here for generations the tradition of

learning and practicing black magic has been prevalent.

Even in the chapter Ghatothkach Prasanga of the epic Mahabharata also

(epic text of Ancient India), Mayong has been mentioned.

Many historians from the land of Mayong have got such

documents from which it can be concluded that here since

ages goddess Kali has been worshipped.

Today's story also deals with a girl living in Mayong called Shayanti,

who in spite of her mother's refusal used black magic.

And it's consequences were even beyond her imagination.

I like this girl.

She's done her Masters in English.

And looks exactly like Vidya Balan (Indian film actress).

Let me see. Whether it's the one in Ishqiya or that in Parineeta.

Leave it! Let mother see. Please see.

And their family is also very nice.

Her father, Mr.Sujoy Ghosh is the district judge.

And very soon he's also going to get promoted.

I don't know any of that. I just want a daughter-in-law just like my Parineeta.

Then my marriage is done,

because there can't be another woman like my sister-in-law.

Did you see how much he's buttering? Just see her, probably you'll like her.

No.

Seems like it's going to rain, isn't it? Hey!

Who's she?

Don't see that one, see her.

Sister-in-law?

Yes?

Your Vidya Balan is very boring.

Brother, she isn't boring. Or is it that you've

got little more interest for that Shayanti?

By the way, what did you see in her? I mean she's so simple.

I bet she doesn't know anything.

Right. At least she won't show her intellectual streak.

And this judge's daughter, she's going to get judgmental every now and then.

Oh wow!

Only after seeing Shayanti's photograph you liked her so much?

Father's sister had brought this proposal to aunty.

No matter how much our father's sister

might have tried to help us but her thinking compared to us is...

...very different. Oh God! Father's sister thinks even

today girls should get married by the age of fourteen.

Forget about father's sister, that girl education wise,

status wise doesn't match us at all.

I know sister-in-law. And believe me, I'd never thought a girl's

education and her background will not matter for me. But I don't know why,

only looking at her photograph felt like she's the girl

who in order to stay with me, in order to keep me happy will do anything.

Kuntal!

You've come to marry me? You'll marry me?

I'll eat you up!

What happened to you Aparna? Aparna?

Hey, Aparna!

Don't touch me! I'll kill you! I'll kill each one.

Leave me!

Aparna? - Hey!

Aparna? Aparna? Aparna? What happened to her?

Aparna? What happened to my child?

-What happened to her? Aparna? -Mother!

What happened to her? What happened to her?

What happened to her?

Open your eyes, tell me what happened to her?

Open your eyes dear. Open your eyes.

Tell me what has happened to her. What has happened!

One day later.

You're up?

I'll only get up when you'll give me something.

You're too..

Think of it.

I won't give this one too...

what will you do with just one.

What'll you also do with just one?

Hey Shayanti!

She has done some magic.

God, I just love her!

Sister-in-law, sister-in-law!

What happened?

Sister-in-law!

Hardly have you tasted sweetened tea and you've created chaos.

But why did you give me sweetened tea?

I didn't make this tea but Shayanti did.

And it didn't seem right to object her the very first day to me.

I am sorry. I didn't know the tea... what do I do Shayanti?

I can't have sweetened tea.

You do one thing. Tomorrow learn how to make tea from sister-in-law.

She is the best!

Hey, no, no. There's nothing of the sort. He throws lots of tantrums.

Quickly drink tea. I'll take out clothes for you from the cupboard, okay?

Sure.

What about the clothes which I've taken out and kept?

Younger sister-in-law, it's your phone call, from Mayong!

Coming.

Mother?

Mother?

It's good dear that you came. Or else what I wanted to...

tell you

that would've been...

stuck to my breath, dear.

No mother, nothing's going to happen to you.

You're going to get cured very soon.

No dear, no, no, no.

Now the time for my self sacrifice has come, dear.

For your marriage, I'd done

hypnosis on Debojit

and black magic on Aparna, dear.

It's an art and if anyone makes it's wrong use,

then he has to pay very dearly.

And in spite of knowing it's consequences

I did this for you, dear.

I did all this.

I've kept this fact hidden from your in-laws, dear.

And don't say tell to anyone, don't say anything dear.

Yes mother, I won't say it to anyone.

Dear, whereas this black magic gives many things,

it also takes a very big sacrifice, dear. And I don't want anything

of the sort to happen to you.

Promise me dear that you'll

never make use of this black magic, right? Never ever?

-Yes mother. -Promise me.

I won't use it.

Mother!

Hey Shayanti what are you doing?

Why sister-in-law?

See this. The entire platform got spoiled.

Wait.

Parineeta tried her level best to teach Shayanti

the rules and regulations of the house. She even helped her in every possible way.

But instead of Shayanti understanding all this,

nobody knows why she kept distancing herself from everyone.

Shayanti?

Hey Shayanti, why don't you sit at the back? Sister-in-law?

Yes Debojit?

Sister-in-law, you sit beside me.

No Debojit, Shayanti is your wife and she should sit beside you, okay?

Sit Shayanti.

Oh god, how much they dirty the room. When are they going to change?

See this, they don't have any system at all.

You were stealing my anklet?

No sister-in-law, I wasn't stealing. It was lying here on the floor.

I was going to pick it up and give to you sister-in-law.

Since I've caught you red handed stealing, you've started making excuses?

No I swear sister-in-law. I wasn't stealing. I am not a thief.

What happened?

I've caught her red handed stealing this. She's a thief for sure.

I know everything. A bloody thief.

Sister-in-law, I've been working in this house since so many years.

You've never behaved with me in this way.

And the moment this younger sister-in-law came to this house

I've been accused of stealing.

Shayanti...

was unable to adapt herself to our lifestyle.

She often used to make mistakes.

I don't know what complex she had.

I don't know why she was feeling as if everyone is listening to me,

especially Debojit.

Often when we'd be sitting together and share light moments, I don't know why

she would get hurt by small things.

She would get angry and she'd get up from there and go away.

Khipi,

now did you understand the consequence of going against me?

If you want to live, then get out of this house and also from this city.

That night I was feeling extremely terrified.

It felt like I'll not live any longer.

But not just one night, every night I was seeing such terrible nightmares.

Whenever I go to do some good work, my head seems

to be turning topsy turvy. In order to save my life, I left the job.

And Shayanti had now seen the miracles of black magic with her own eyes.

It's because of this magic she found her Debojit.

Gradually she made use of this magic to concretize her position in the family.

But very soon other people in the family

too started liking Shayanti more than Parineeta.

And then one day.

Hey, this water?

Oh god!

Everything will be all right.

What happened?

I don't know why these days only you

find things wrong in everything and nobody else?

You are...!

It's paining a lot!

Shayanti, as if the pain just disappeared.

Shayanti, Shayanti, thank you!

You've cured mother completely.

Mother, you're all right isn't it?

Parineeta, Shayanti has cured mother.

Shayanti, forgive me. I didn't trust you.

No treatment done by me till today has gone wrong.

Here's the blessing.

I'll have it later.

Sister-in-law, give some to mother.

Seems like it's going to rain.

What's this?

It's the same blessing which I'd given to Shayanti...

"I'll have it later."

I still remember the day

when I'd seen that blessing for the first time.

I was sure somewhere or the other

Shayanti was doing something wrong.

If I'd have said it to anyone at home,

then nobody would've believed me. Everyone would've thought that I am lying.

That's why I decided myself to bring

whatever the truth is in front of the family members.

Sister-in-law, you?

This. What's all this going on?

It's....for mother...

Enough. I know very well what treatment is going on here.

I've seen the blessing that you've thrown away.

Since many days I am noticing something wrong is going on in the house.

I used to think how is it possible that you have the solution to all the problems?

But when you yourself create the problems,

then the solutions too would be with you, right?

You'd planned mother's fall, right? Tell me,

tell me why are you doing so? What wrong have my family done to you?

Tell me the truth or else I'll call everyone here right now.

No! Please, please don't do so. Debojit will leave me.

I'll never ever do anything of the sort again.

Whatever I did was to make my own place in this family,

I did it to get Debojit's love. Please, please sister.

Why do you think all of us are not happy with you?

You'd made your place in this family the day Debojit married you.

You're the younger daughter-in-law of this house.

Debojit loves you from the day he saw your photograph.

What's the need to do all this in order to get his love?

You're right sister, I was wrong.

But please give me one opportunity.

I swear I'll leave all this right now.

All right. If you're saying that you won't do these things

then I too am not going to tell anyone. I also don't want our family to break.

But if again ever...

...you'll never ever see me doing this in this house.

Really. But please forgive me this time.

Sister, you've committed a grave mistake by threatening me.

Now keep watching what I do.

Shayanti performed Kaliya Masan (occult practice) on Parineeta.

It's such a powerful curse from which it's impossible to escape.

It's impact is so fatal that within forty days

the enemy's death is certain.

Kaliya Masan finishes off all the physical

and mental powers of a human being.

Even the faith of religious people on god starts wavering,

they start seeing strange dreams.

There's no control on their thoughts.

Once Kaliya Masan has been performed,

it's very difficult to take the curse back.

Blood!

What happened sister?

What happened sister-in-law?

Blood!

But sister this is milk.

Sister-in-law, this is really milk.

Come.

Milk?

I am not feeling very well.

Come sister-in-law, I'll take you to your room.

What happened Parineeta? What happened?

Is everything okay?

Did you have any nightmare?

It's me.

What happened? Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry.

-If you want then I can stay back. -No, no.

You don't worry about me. You go.

Sister-in-law, if you need anything, just give us a call.

Brother, let's go we're getting late.

Okay then I'll leave.

Come.

Who is there?

Who is there?

Who is it?

Is anyone there? Is anyone there?

Who is there?

Parineeta! Parineeta! Parineeta, what happened?

Mother! Parineeta! Parineeta, come.

Parineeta! Parineeta, what happened to you?

Mother, come fast.

Mother! Parineeta!

I thought if I go this time, she'll kill me.

The condition of the elder sister-in-law was very serious.

That's why I couldn't even leave her.

I was very scared sister-in-law. Forgive me.

Probably somewhere or the other I too am responsible

condition of yours.

If I'd have come earlier

and informed you about it, then probably you'd not be in this condition.

Did you get treated by any tantric (person versed in mystical formulae)?

Tantric?

If you say, then I can call him, he's the one who cured me.

He's a very big tantric of Mayong.

Dear, look at me.

Have you ever seen yourself dying through your own eyes?

Everyday.

Sir, what has happened to my Parineeta?

Someone has performed Kaliya Masan on her.

It's very difficult to escape this curse.

You're very late.

Now Parineeta is just there for four more days.

Don't say so, don't say so.

Do anything but save my Pari.

But what has sister-in-law done to anyone?

Why would anyone do so with her?

Before knowing why has it been done,

it's important to know who has done it.

And this curse can only be taken back by the person who has

performed the Kaliya Masan.

But how are we going to find that person, how?

There's no need to go out in order to find that person,

that person is right here,

in this house.

What are you saying sir? Among us who'll do such a thing?

As soon as that instrument is found, I'll be able to know

in order to do Kaliya Masan

who has sought the help of magical formula.

And no matter wherever that instrument is in this house,

the goddess herself is going to lead me to that.

Who's inside this room?

Where's Shayanti?

How did I come here? I don't remember.

At least don't tell lies now! I am ashamed to even think that you've done all this!

Quiet!

What wrong had my sister-in-law done to you? What had she done?

She always wished good for you and have done good to you too.

And with her you...?

Leave that mother! Who're you talking to? Her?

I am going to show her. Come! Come!

Mother! Leave me, leave me! Mother!

Get out of here!

Debojit? What is this new way of behaving with your wife?

Sister-in-law, you don't know what she has done!

Whatever she has done, she has done it with immaturity.

What you're doing is deliberate.

I knew Shayanti makes use of black magic

but I didn't tell anyone anything.

Why?

Because I didn't want our family to break away

or even outsiders to say wrong things about our family.

Whatever Shayanti is like,

she's after all the daughter-in-law of this house and she's your wife.

Forgive me sister! I've committed a very big sin.

Get up Shayanti.

Dear, if you take this curse back even now

then a very grave misfortune can be prevented from happening.

Parineeta!

Parineeta!

Parineeta, you're all right, isn't it?

I am feeling absolutely all right.

Glory to the goddess!

After this incident, Shayanti never came back.

Probably she had realized her mistake.

It's also probable that after the appearance of so many truths,

she didn't have the courage to face us.

But we searched her a lot

but we couldn't find her anywhere. Debojit didn't marry a second time

because he got used to staying alone.

And as far as I am concerned,

then even today when I recall that incident I shudder.

I get scared

but many thanks to you o lord.

The good thing is that I am alive even today.

I am living happily with my family without any fear.

What is known as Masan (dark spirit)?

Masan is often found either in a cemetery or in a graveyard.

They're a kind of very dark or low level spirits

but they're very powerful.

It's said that they've at least fifty kinds of powers in them.

What kind of powers? Powers like creating discord among others,

discord between a husband and a wife

or discord between people involved in a business.

To make people suffer,

are all tamasic (dark) powers.

We've heard of a lot of such stories,

not just from one place but from every corner of India.

These cases dealing with Masan are very common and very usual.

Masan can be sent to anybody or it can grasp anybody.

How rich is a person is a different thing, even if he's powerful,

for Masan it's not a problem.

Because Masan is the most powerful.

There's just one way of escaping it which is self confidence.

The other way out is mantra (magical formula).

But generally the common man doesn't have access to this mantra.

People who use Kaliya Masan, their end is never good.

Their end is painful.

Either their family will suffer or they themselves will suffer.

Or they themselves will get killed at the hands of the Masan.
