Ruler of Shigatse, Tenzin Gyatso, the rebel
remained undefeated against Jamyang Dorje, the emperor of Tibet.
Only the death of his daughter could weaken Tenzin.
So, the emperor's spies consistently poisoned Tenzin's daughter's food.
But one day, the emperor got word
that a toxicologist has healed Tenzin's daughter.
War was the only way out.
The emperor started preparing for war.
Decided to leave for Shigatse the very next day.
He would punish Karma Tenzin so severely
so that no one else would dare to rebel.
But he did not know who the toxicologist was.
(chanting)
Later that night, the king woke up
to news of a disaster.
The emperor's entire family including the queen and prince
had suddenly fallen very ill.
They were all vomiting blood.
And the royal physician was at a complete loss.
In one night, the emperor's entire family
was wiped out.
(chanting)
Who was the toxicologist?
A member of this family.
The tantric, Sahasraksh Chakraborty.
For 600 years
my family has served as their family priest.
My ancestor first came to this house in the 16th century.
The owner of the house was Bisheswar Chakraborty.
His brother, Sahasraksh Chakraborty, was a toxicologist.
The locals used to say
that even snakes were scared of him!
When he was 30 years old
Sahasraksh suddenly went missing.
Legend has it, he went to Torai
under the tutelage of a sage.
After 10 years of training, he went to Tibet.
There, he became a disciple of a tantric guru
and learnt Vajrayana tantrism.
As per his teacher's instructions...
...Sahasraksh healed Tenzin Gyatso's daughter.
He also promised Tenzin
that he will help bring about the fall of Jamyang Dorje.
But requested the help of a skilled sculptor.
Tenzin was surprised at the odd request
but called for the best sculptor in the kingdom.
Then, under Sahasraksh's guidance
the sculptor crafted a unique idol.
Since it was first crafted by a Tibetan sculptor
it is often mistaken...
...for a Tibetan goddess.
With that, Tenzin Gyatso won without a single battle.
Sahasraksh knew that greed is very dangerous.
He knew that if an evil tantric got his hands on the idol
then it could be deadly.
So one day, he secretly took the idol
and came back to his motherland.
Bengal.
Here, he reinfused life in the idol.
Ever since
for 600 years, the family was blessed by the Goddess.
But Sahasraksh had given strict orders
for if the family ever decided to leave this house.
In that case, they must give away the idol to someone else.
Because if the idol remains in the abandoned house
it would be bring disaster.
That's why I...
I gave the idol to him.
What is the solution, Priest?
We are mere humans.
Only a wise and superior being can show us the way.
-What's this, Atin? -Hello.
I'd given you the week off.
I don't need it, sir.
I'm feeling much better now.
Thank you.
Hi, Anima.
Hi.
Looking good.
Thanks.
-Atin. -Hmm?
What happened to you?
I'm not exactly sure what happened to me.
Must be stress.
Anyway.
Please mail me last months's sales figures.
Hmm.
No mechanic available now, sir.
-Not before tomorrow-- -One second.
When I got the car, you said free service for two years.
Yes, sir.
And you said 24x7 service no matter where I am--
-You'll send mechanic. -There's no one tonight.
-Try to understand-- -Just get lost!
-We'll send someone by morning. -Pissing off!
-Just forget it. Unbelievable! -As you wish, sir--
Yeah, tell me.
The sales report is ready. Sending it to you.
-Progress report sent to sir. -Okay.
Nothing else, right? I'll be on leave for two days.
-Got it. -Okay then.
-Just help me with one thing... -Yeah?
-Paid it online. Thank you. -Okay.
-Tell me. -CC me on the progress report.
No problem, sir.
-The sales report too. -Yes.
-Sorry for bugging you so late. -No issues.
-Okay, thank you. -You owe me a treat!
Goodnight.
Atin.
Uncle?
You here?
Are you alright, dear?
I'm absolutely fine, uncle.
I'm fine but...
I...
I owe you an apology.
I don't know what got into me.
I don't know what I said, what I did...
Please forgive me, uncle.
Now is not the time, Atin.
You are in grave danger.
What danger?
Damri is no ordinary human.
The tantric form...
...of Saraswati is Goddess Matangi.
That's why she's depicted holding a veena.
Goddess Matangi is worshipped even by Buddhist tantrics.
Maybe that's why Sahasraksh sought help
from Goddess Matangi.
Are there any specific rules for the worship of this goddess?
Of course.
But it is an extremely difficult ritual.
She is the daughter of Matangi, king of the "chandals" or outcasts.
That's why she's also known as Chandalini.
Hence, all that is rejected, impure or abandoned
is protected by Goddess Matangi.
Atin must've made some mistake in worshipping Her.
He has brought about his own doom.
Her wrath is terrifying.
First, he will lose his mind.
He will lose his ability to think and reason.
He will lose his will to live.
He will grow distant from friends and family.
He will spiral deeper and deeper into loneliness.
If he still does not come to his senses...
then a demoness, controlled by the Goddess
will come for him.
A demoness?
How do we identify her?
She will take a human form.
The very embodiment of doom.
Of death.
Wherever she appears...
...she will bring about unnatural happenings.
Things that cannot be explained with logic.
Upon the Goddess' orders
she will destroy a person's family...
his mind, property, reputation, everything.
And how long does she take to do that?
One lunar cycle.
She will appear in a person's life on a new moon night.
She'll begin to ruin his life.
By the next new moon night...
she will sacrifice him before the Goddess.
I know you can't make sense of what I'm telling you.
But please believe me, Atin.
I'm very hungry, Dadababu.
Please give me some food.
A demoness?
How do we identify her?
She will take a human form.
Will make infernal food for your friend's son.
When he eats it...
Or even smells it...
he is bound to throw up.
Okay, but if what you're saying is true
then we shouldn't enter the house at all.
We should rather come in the morning and get rid of the idol.
That won't help, Atin.
This demoness won't let you go easily.
We have to face her to defeat her.
Don't worry.
I'm right here.
Come on.
Bhabesh uncle...
(chanting)
Pushpa!
Dadababu?
Where's the Goddess' offering?
(chanting)
Where's the Goddess' offering?
You devil!
A grand offering!
You killed Pushpa!
Bhabesh uncle!
(chanting)
Atin.
Atin?
(chanting)
Take off the pendant, Atin.
Take off the pendant.
-(chanting) -Take off the pendant, Atin.
-Take off the pendant.
-Atin, take off the pendant. -Take off the pendant.
Atin, take off the pendant.
-Atin, take off the pendant. -Take off the pendant.
(voices continue)
(chanting)
You don't ask after this old man.
Only I keep in touch.
I'll call you every evening...
...and ask how you're doing.
Let it be. Too hard to digest!
(inaudible)
The night before she died...
...your mom gave me her ring and said--
"Take care of my son, Pushpa."
You'll miss me when I'm gone.
The greatest power is that of love.
Love is the most powerful form of tantra.
This will save your life, Atin.
Do not take this off your neck...
...at any cost.
Uncle...
Bhabesh uncle?
Bhabesh uncle!
Atin?
-Atin, is that idol gone? -Uncle...
Don't worry about that. You need rest.
Forget about it.
How many days has it been?
Just two and a half days.
For your age, you've performed very well.
Easy there.
I've just regained consciousness.
Don't call me old just yet.
But given what happened in the last one month...
You never answered me.
Did you get rid of it?
I'm annoyed as f**k!
Lost my job.
Can't tell my parents.
I don't like it here, so far from home.
Chill. Have your drink.
Need to take a piss.
I am hungry!
Give me food!
