Plot
Twenty years after the incident at the Maanikaseri Kovilakam, several members of the family have now died, leaving behind Unnikrishnan Varma/Unni, his sister (Oppol) and his only daughter Arathi Varma. An atheist and rationalist, Arathi is a medical student who hangs around with her close friends Jithu, Titus and Gopi, who is also her lover. One day, the friends come across an ashram that is headed by Soumini Devi, a tantrik ritualist who specialises in dark spells and black magic. Arathi decides to test the authenticity of the claims of the ashram, so she is allowed to make contact with the soul of her deceased mother, Maya/Daisy, who died after childbirth. The soul further tells her about a bracelet that she intended to give her newborn daughter, made by her great-grandmother, after Arathi would be born. Out of curiosity, Arathi searches of the bracelet, which leads to a forbidden temple that contained the evil soul of Ganga, the maid who was killed mercilessly by the male members of the Maanikaseri family decades ago. Arathi accidentally releases the soul, leading to several paranormal incidents in the house. Out of fear, the four friends decide to meet Meppadan Thirumeni, the exorcist who subdued the evil spirit previously, at his house but find out that he has died too. Eventually, they contact Soumini Devi, the estranged daughter of Meppadan, about the strange problems. Soumini Devi tells that it was the spirit of Ganga who was causing the current problems. She also tells them that after the spirit was exorcised from Arathi's mother's body, several members of the family died after Arathi's birth due to this spirit.
