Ever since that terrible day when Kunwar Vijay Singh had been murdered, a mysterious light would be seen in the Ajaygarh Fort. And, from the darkness of the nearby jungle was heard the heart-rending cries of a woman --- haunting, frightening, unreal. As the cry died away in despair, a terrible silence (sannata) fell over the place, a silence that was broken by searching questions, as each one seemed to enquire of the other, "Are you... are you the actual murderer?" 

The horrifying secret hidden within this strange story will be unfolded upon the Screen, as thrill follows thrill, carrying the tale to a climax of unrelenting suspense.
