Nikita Roy is a staunch rationalist and author who belongs to the International Rationalist Community (IRC). Her brother, Sanal, a fellow rationalist, dies under mysterious circumstances (ruled suicide by police) while investigating a powerful godman, Amar Dev. Nikita refuses to believe it was suicide and begins her own investigation, confronting Amar Dev and his religion. Her rational worldview is shaken when she encounters seemingly supernatural events, forcing her to confront forces beyond science to find the truth.
Nikita's scientific beliefs are challenged as she uncovers dark, supernatural forces with the help of her ex-boyfriend Jolly (Suhail Nair). Directed by Kussh S. Sinha, the film pits science against superstition in a battle against a charismatic godman.
