About the trailer

The trailer begins with Kajol driving her daughter through a dense forest road. Her daughter complains of period pain, and Kajol says they will stop in a short while, and it will be okay. But that does not happen as planned, as a mysterious figure slams into the glass window, and the two of them find themselves in Chandanpur, where a dark new chapter is about to begin.

Kajol tells her daughter not to step out with her permission. Soon, she finds out about a cursed tree where it is believed that evil spirits reside. Ronit Roy appears and shared that several girls have disappeared from the same place in the last few months. A furious Kajol then declares that she will not let her daughter be the sacrifice for ending the curse of this place. Will she be able to protect her daughter from the evil forces?

Reacting to the trailer, a fan commented, “This looks intense and scary! Good to see Kajol in a different role.” A second fan said, “So happy to see production houses exploring the horror verses instead of the action and romantic stuff!” “The trailer looks awesome,” said a second fan.
