Priya is grief-stricken and depressed due to her husband's death, and as a result of the loss, she is unable to spend time with Kriya.

Seeing Kriya speaking alone and due to her behavior, Priya becomes tense and concerned, and consults a doctor.

Their relatives get the mother and daughter to hospital, where the priest comes to meet Priya, and tells them the story behind the ghost.

Even after eight years of marriage, Kumari was not blessed with a baby, so her in-laws and elders decided and arranged her husband to marry another woman.

Priya begs her to leave her child, and even Kriya says that she wants to stay with her mother and doesn't like Kumari at all.
