Kabir Raina, a successful music producer and Kashmiri Pandit, returns to Kashmir after 30 years in Mumbai, grieving the loss of his wife and child. In Pahalgam, he saves Armaan, a blind child, and bonds deeply with him, despite resistance from Armaan’s mother, Iravati. Kabir’s newfound peace shatters when he’s accused of aiding a missing militant—Armaan’s father—who caused his own father’s death. As Kabir navigates legal challenges and reconciles with past traumas, he confronts the intertwined fates of forgiveness, redemption, and familial legacy.

Sachiel, a yesteryear’s indie musician, now runs a bistro and leads a quiet life with his adopted twins – until his old agent gets in touch for the request of one last performance; a final act for a former close client who is now opening a jazz club by the coastline in Bandra, Mumbai.

As Sachiel accepts the request, circles of circumstances that cut across time and space begin, drawing in him and all those around him; from the present as well as the past. An anomaly in the strands of fates becomes bound to stir the fabric of existence and consequence. In pre-empted response, an occult and clandestine cult that is above the laws of natural order begins orchestrating a ritual of balance that is more violent than anything it has done in centuries.
