Introduced to the viewers are a young couple, Tushar (Vikram Gaikwad) and 8-month-pregnant Neha (Pooja Sawant) who undertake a trip to a remote village to escape vengeful debtors.

They accommodate themselves in a ramshackle house in the midst of a thick sugarcane field, owned by an aged couple Bhaurao (Anil Gawas) and Tulsabai (Usha Naik).

She tells Neha the story of her younger brother-in-law's wife Kaveri, who murdered her own husband and her brothers-in-law (who are still children) in cold blood.

The newborn female babies are then drowned by the couple's son Pratap Rao (who masquerades as Tushar), in accordance with a misguided superstition that calls for human sacrifice to ensure a bountiful harvest.
