When Ahalya opened the door and welcomed Inspector Indra Sen into her house, he couldn’t help but notice that she was indeed as beautiful as the most beautiful woman in Hindu mythology she was named after. It’s probably a coincidence that his name was the same as the King of Gods who seduced Ahalya according to the scriptures! But little did Indra know his life was about to change for ever when he stepped into that house that Ahalya shared with her husband Goutam Sadhu, a genius artist who was the last person seen with a missing model whose disappearance Indra is investigating. Indra’s search leads to tea, conversation and a stone, which Goutam tells him has immense magical powers. Determined to crack the case Indra finds himself drowning deep into a world filled with mystery, mythology and his worst nightmare.
