Highlights
The storyteller summarizes the previous part where Kunal fell from his terrace, possibly pushed by a ghostly entity. Anushka, engaged to Gaurav, had been experiencing strange physical sensations and unsettling dreams, leading them to visit a doctor. Kunal, a young man from a neighboring apartment, had previously shown inappropriate behavior towards Anushka.
Anushka confesses to her parents that she saw Kunal before she fell, even though he was believed to be dead. Her family dismisses her claims, attributing her state to shock. Gaurav, however, takes her words seriously, recalling seeing Kunal himself. He suggests consulting a spiritual healer, but Anushka's educated and modern parents refuse, prioritizing their social image over supernatural beliefs. Despite visiting numerous hospitals, Anushka's health worsens, her hemoglobin levels drop, and she becomes withdrawn and unhygienic. She starts talking in her sleep and experiences a heavy presence on her shoulders.
Gaurav's family visits, suggesting he marry someone else due to Anushka's condition. In a dramatic turn, Anushka, acting out of character, tells her parents, in a voice that isn't hers, that she is Kunal and will marry their daughter. This unnerves everyone, especially Gaurav's parents, who want to call off the marriage. However, Gaurav reaffirms his love for Anushka and his commitment to marry her, stating he will do so in a week. When he embraces Anushka, he smells a putrid odor. Anushka then reveals that Kunal is present and fears Gaurav but harasses her when he is not around.
Gaurav, realizing the supernatural nature of the problem, decides to bring a spiritual healer. His mother expresses concern about the marriage given Anushka's state, but Gaurav insists on marrying her. He asks for their horoscopes to set a wedding date, which is set for one month later, leaving a cliffhanger where Gaurav is determined to marry Anushka, despite her being possessed by Kunal's spirit.
