This is a double-sided story, narrating the present with a flashback simultaneously. Psychiatrist Dr. Sakhshi Sagar suddenly discovers evidence of a case of a serial killer who was in her treatment. The killer will be hanged soon. Dr. Sagar tries to prove that the killer is a mental patient with dual personalities. She calls an emergency meeting at midnight with a judge and higher officials before the execution. On the other side, in a stormy night, various people passing through this highway get diverted to a haunted motel for shelter. They meet the only receptionist-cum-bearer, Adi. A husband with his injured wife and stepson came there. Actually, Avinash hit the lady while driving. He is the bodyguard of actress and model Kashmira. Avinash takes them into the motel and tries to give medical aid, although Kashmira does not agree. A young honeymoon couple Varun and Mahek, bar dancer Sonia and Jatin, a police inspector who is transferring one convict in his custody to another prison, also take shelter at this motel. The receptionist manages to accommodate all of them in various rooms. One person within the group starts killing the guests one by one, and on the other side, Dr. Sagar reveals the past of the murderer.
