Ancient India...

A time when legends were created

to explain the unknown.

The most enduring legend

is that of the shape-shifting Cobra Goddess.

This feared and respected goddess of fertility

carries within her a stone of immortality...

the Nagmani.

Many a man, out of foolishness or greed,

has tried to steal the Nagmani by holding her lover to ransom...

not knowing what vengeance she will wreak upon both the guilty and the innocent.

But then they learn that only a goddess has the power

to give or take.

My son, what have you seen?

-Nagin. -Nagin?

Nagin!

Water... rain?

I may have brain cancer, but I can still piss like a race horse.

Rise and shine, you idiots.

I've got a snake to catch.

We'll take him to see the snake.

Watch but don't upset the Nagin.

You will take the male snake

and she will come for him in human form.

This is going to work. She will bring me the immortality stone.

"Mr. States, you have stage three brain cancer.

There is no treatment. Increased pain. Cranial pressure. You have six months."

Play the lyre music.

It will take place tonight. She will be powerless.

-Stop here. -This is the place.

Where?

Where?

-Where are we going? -Come, sir. Come with me.

Remember, we have to watch them having sex.

That's when they get in the mood.

Sir, come this way.

Get the male snake.

We must only be silent witnesses, sir. I cannot do what you ask.

Take this now.

No. Don't shoot.

You will scare away the snakes!

Now...

I want that snake.

Now go, get it. Get in there.

Nagin, please don't take vengeance on me. The white man's making me do this.

You know I'm helpless.

Bring her, motherfucker!

Now you're under my control.

Sir...

she will be coming for all of us.

If I remain here, she'll destroy my family.

She'll avenge all of this.

I will drive myself.

I'm Anurag Pandey.

I would like to wish you all the best. Happy Holi to you.

Why are you still asleep? Go and splash colors on your neighbors.

Go and meet them! All of them are already intoxicated...

Maya, our child is not going to get stoned like them.

Son or daughter, okay?

Hey!

A cop's kid behaving like that?

Maya?

Maya?

Come home early today.

Open the door, please?

Maya, open the door please?

My love...

Maya...

We will try again. We will have a baby.

Going out?

Daughter! Daughter!

Are you going out?

Are you going out?

You used to be so beautiful.

Look at you now.

Look at your condition.

Have you stopped using a mirror?

Have you looked at yourself in a mirror?

Maji, I am your son-in-law, your daughter's husband.

-Okay. -Yeah?

No man will marry you if this is how you dress.

Who will look at you?

Only the Devil will love you.

No one listens to me!

Go be with the Devil.

Only the Devil will love you.

Now I can see like you.

I'm feeling immortal already.

Can you see me?

Your beloved won't be able to see.

See me.

This madness getting more and more exciting every year.

Where is she?

Where is she?

I feel like meeting you

I am feeling a strange kind of urge within me

Show me your face

Influence my mind and body

The Nagin is calling you Come.

My mind and body are dancing

It calls my beloved Listening to the lyre

Let's refill our water pistols.

I can't understand what you said!

We can shoot her from the window after we reload.

That tribal babe is totally baked.

We can do whatever we want to her.

I feel like meeting you

I am feeling a strange kind of urge within me

Show me your face

Influence my mind and body

The Nagin is calling you Come

My mind and body are dancing

It calls my beloved Listening to the lyre

My mind and body are dancing

It calls my beloved Listening to the lyre

My mind and body are dancing

It calls my beloved Listening to the lyre

You just keep trying.

There's always a new science.

Play Holi, everyone gets high and plays Holi

I am here. What are you looking at?

Hey darling!

Asshole! Get back!

Oh, now I understand.

Now I understand.

You like it quiet, slow, yes?

Well I like it fast, faster harder.

Are you stupid? Dumb?

For a mute, you make a lot of noise!

Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!

Quiet!

Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!

Your body is so hot.

You can give me what I need.

The fun I am having here... Hey, you idiot.

Why are you putting the TV on? The show is here!

Dinesh... this may be the snake goddess.

Run now. Run away. Run from here!

What happened?

Hey, you better not have ruined my Baywatch tape...

Tell me.

Ah, man... it's still good!

Grab.

I'll do what I like.

You are all one color again.

I kept a plate for you.

A girl her size should skip a few meals.

Let her eat, Mom...

Not sure whether in-laws will feed or not.

What will become of me?

Come now, be quick.

Where is Sonu?

I am calling from Havelock Road.

There is a woman here. She looks very distressed.

Come quickly.

Do you want tea?

Drink. You will like it.

Women's shelter.

Fine.

Hey, listen, we have a case here.

I think I might need your help. Can you come now?

What's the matter? Okay, I'm coming.

Okay, okay.

Who is he? Do you know him?

Yes-- Hi.

-Hi. -Where?

-Where is she? -There.

-My room. -I got it. Pick up your phone.

Yeah, I am on my way.

Slow-- Slow down. You're making no sense.

You can't see the smell.

But your face is telling the story of how bad it is.

-Is this Pamela Anderson? -Yeah.

Damn.

Plastic rope. Bones.

-Not mine. -Not mine either.

And cell-phone.

Right.

I will have to cut this open to extract it.

I need that phone once you extract it.

Okay.

-I am Naveen, sir. -I believe you are.

-Your new partner. -So?

What case are we on today?

Don't follow me.

It's a sari.

I have no experience dressing other women. It's a first for me.

You don't know how to tie a sari? Hand... raise your hand.

This mirror is a bit old, but you look so beautiful.

I don't need to live forever.

All I want is a grandchild.

Why does your mom light a lamp at night? Most people turn off the lights at night.

She's praying for us to have kids.

I can see that, but it makes no sense.

What's it to you?

She is going to start a fire one of these days.

Why are you keeping me alive this long?

I am growing old. I'm yearning.

Grant my child a baby.

Oh, Snake Goddess... I'm not asking for much.

Something bothering you?

Don't tell me if you don't want to...

but don't lie to me.

We will go see your gynecologist.

Should I turn off the lights?

Maya, Maya, Maya...

Not today.

Will you tell me what's on your mind?

I had this case today.

Stabbing victim.

The body that turned up today is very odd.

Completely distorted.

You see that every other day.

Listen to the whole story.

The other body looked like someone puked it out.

A strange object.

It was about this big.

Clothes... human hair... mobile.

Like something you would see in a science fiction movie.

You couldn't tell what it was just by looking at it.

Almost like something ate it and spat it out again.

You could see the remains of clothes and hair.

If you don't want to make love...

just tell me.

Don't make up excuses.

Don't you dare scream.

Hurry up, finish your fun.

Mom, help me!

-Quiet! -Umar!

Now shout!

Having fun?

I have news.

What is it?

My friend has seen her.

He has come to tell us and collect his money, sir.

No money until I am sure.

Dinesh!

Sir, this is Dinesh.

He is a snake charmer.

And he has seen her.

From the way you're shaking,

you're familiar with the legend of the Nagin.

You know the story of Nagin.

This is her lover.

You want money.

Here you go.

I have to be sure.

Disaster is coming!

Disaster is coming!

Give your friend the money. I believe him.

This is madness! This is madness!

This is madness!

Come, find your lover.

The apocalypse is upon us!

Nagin is coming! She won't spare you!

The end is coming!

Nagin is coming!

Let her come... we will be waiting.

We'll get the money. And we need money.

That's what we have been waiting for.

Anyhow, I need the money.

She should come!

Need money.

-Hey, give me cigarette. -Here.

What did he say?

Since coming back from the jungle, you have turned into the devil.

I love you so dearly.

Don't touch the kids!

Come on, let's go.

Open the door!

The kids are more precious to me than my life.

Open the...

Sir, there's one thing I don't understand.

Where did he get so much venom?

I have no clue.

Why the overkill?

When you kill, kill somebody with the smallest necessary dose.

At least 1000 cobras would be needed to produce this much venom, sir.

And for how many months would this venom have to be collected?

-All this aside-- -Why don't you ever shut up?

I don't know, sir. I will try. But, sir, you have to listen to me.

There is definitely something wrong with this case.

This is not just a murder.

I mean, there's definitely some mystery behind it, sir.

And I am telling you, take a look at this picture.

There is so much venom, you can't imagine.

There must be something to it, sir. It's just not a plain and simple murder.

You're very intelligent.

Sir, finding so much venom in a body is very strange.

Very, very intelligent.

Okay, I am handing in my resignation today.

-Come on! -You've been playing for an hour.

What is it?

Something is definitely wrong.

Who are you talking about? George?

I'm talking about Mr. George.

He's got brain cancer.

And that cancer is eating him from the inside.

That's why he is looking for the Nagani.

That's why he stole the lover and brought it here.

Even he believes in these old stories.

If he has brain cancer, he is going to die soon anyway.

I agree with him.

Everything else can go to hell, all I want is money

All that is fine, but he is calling the Nagin here.

Come on, let's get out of here.

George is a crazy rascal.

I hope she looks as good as she does in all the movies.

All that Nagin stuff is bullshit.

And for how long did you know him?

-We've known him for the last 15 years. -And you, Aunty?

These people are the neighbors of the murdered guide.

For many years they have known him...

Yes, doctor, what is the verdict?

I redid all the tests, there's no doubt.

My reputation is good and I don't like saying this, but...

I am confused.

What do you mean?

These... wounds...

are not from a knife or any weapon.

They are like... punctures.

And his entire body is filled with venom. I'm telling you.

You mean to say that someone is killing people with venom?

No, I'm just...

It is what it is.

What's the status of inquiry? What's going on here?

So, has the body been identified?

He's a jungle guide who went missing some time back.

Will you people let us do our job?

Come on, move back.

Sir, the kids here are.

The girl and boy.

You're looking at the body behind me.

So?

They say they saw a very big snake.

And that the same snake did this to the body.

A very big snake?

Get aside!

Move back!

Come here.

Stay back.

Yes, sir, this boy.

Come here.

-What's your name? -Niranjan.

Do you take drugs?

I don't even drink whisky.

Clean her up.

If the mother killed someone in self-defense...

so you think her children will say she committed murder?

Sir, are you religious?

What's religion got to do with it?

Sir, this is not a normal murder case. It's a supernatural case, sir.

What's supernatural?

-Sir... -Dutta.

Sir, I mean to say that...

Send the body to the morgue.

I believe what I see.

And you say you don't take drugs?

Right? No puffs.

-Kids don't lie. -Don't shadow me, please.

Sir, I am Captain Singh's nephew from Chennai.

You owe him.

You're that loser's nephew?

Yes, sir.

So why didn't that fool call me?

Sir, he died of cancer.

When?

It's been a while, sir. He is no more.

And before he died, he wrote in his will

your address and your information, and said that you owe him big.

That's why I am here, sir.

I do owe him.

Naveen, we're looking for a murderer.

Not a snakey-wakey.

Sir, one here.

If snake can do all this, then there is no point in our work.

But sir, we should believe a little in old things.

-You need to rest. -Sir, not mine, his!

This looks like the work of a serial killer.

Are you all right?

Bye, Amma.

Where are you?

I just got home.

-Home? -Yes, I am fine.

Why are you asking? What's the matter?

Okay. I will tell you later.

Okay.

-Are you okay? -Where is that girl?

I don't know, she vanished last night. Why?

No, I will tell you later.

Stay at home.

She works here.

Whatever is happening about this...

Yes, Amma?

This case has developed much further.

Police identified the victims as a part-time volunteer

at the women’s shelter and a convicted rapist.

All the women swear that it was in fact the Snake Goddess

that came and saved them.

-Sir, sir! -This big snake...

Sir, what is your opinion about this?

Your friend is on TV.

Sir, please. Sir, one question.

Sir, I told you.

Could one of the women here have done it?

Victims can do anything in self-defense.

Even if all the women here ganged up, they couldn’t do it.

The blind spooky one says she’s seen the Nagin.

Whatever it is, the situation is getting worse.

Find the missing girl. She may be in trouble.

What other atrocities?

We were scared to report it.

You really believe a cobra saved you?

You are all happy here, aren’t you?

So, how is it going?

Where is she?

Oh Lord, save me from the Snake Goddess.

Where is she?

Citizens of India....

We were so scared, we ran inside.

You know, the free-willed Nagin...

If somebody captures or kills her mate...

then the Nagin will definitely find that person and take her revenge.

What's the truth? Let's ask the family.

Tell me what happened here last night.

It saved our life.

My kids saw it with their own eyes.

You saw it?

He saved me.

Yes, now you tell us. How did it look?

Very big, bigger than a man and bigger than a truck.

Vengeance will be taken on all who have troubled the Nagin.

It is written in the scriptures.

Priest, what about those who do not believe in miracles?

The goddess is in search for her love,

and whoever comes in her way shall perish.

It’s time to go back to church, get back to the temple.

Fall to your knees and reverse your karmas.

Because there's a woman out there who isn't accepting any less.

And she is venomous.

Video journalist with Anil Mehta...

Meanwhile, with the amount of cobra venom found in the victim,

police are investigating local snake charmers.

We're out in full force tracking down every local snake charmer

and herpetologist.

Run!

Naveen, I'm following someone in the fish market. Come now.

Move aside.

Nagin’s trying to kill me! She'll kill me!

Get away. Go away.

Don't be spectators! Go back!

Sir... any kids?

We’re trying.

-I mean, we have a mother-in-law. -Okay.

And she is no less than a big child.

Forget about today.

Thank you for inviting me, sir.

Sir, is it appropriate for me to come to dinner in this condition?

This is proof of our work.

And a working man always looks good.

Sister-in-law, sorry for this mess.

I am sure you are hungry.

See.

Amma.

That day when he was describing...

You know, the first time he told me about it.

I thought he was making it up.

No, I've seen it with my own eyes.

Yeah, and the T-shirt he was wearing, it had a fine picture of Pamela Anderson.

Uncle Singh loved me very much.

Thanks, sister-in-law.

He was really a great man.

He knew about us.

In fact, he made sure Vikram proposed to me.

-You owe him big time. -Is that so?

I do.

I know where I have seen you.

On the TV show.

You are right, Aunty.

You've got a sense of humor. That's good.

Thanks, Aunty.

So, did the lovebirds meet on set?

On the TV show?

-On the TV show. -Mom, please eat.

Lovebirds...

-on set-- -Mom, you eat too.

-Lover of the kid, isn't it? -Yeah.

On the set?

They met on the set?

Thank God she found a guy.

Thank God, Mom. Now let's marry them off.

Is marriage okay?

Mama.

The eyes expressed everything

I found a companion

The eyes expressed everything

I really enjoyed the food.

Thanks for coming.

You have a great family, sir.

I hope you'll also have such a great family one day.

The eyes expressed everything

I found a companion

Wake up.

Wake up. Wake up.

What, Mother?

-Get up. -What happened?

-What? -I know.

He's looks for the Snake Goddess, in the snake show.

I'll disconnect your cable TV.

In this Nagin show, I know what's going to happen next.

Okay.

In the next episode, you play an important role.

Please go back to sleep.

Your character finds the Nagin's lover.

An evil man has kept it captive.

He has hidden her lover. Somewhere close to here.

In the basement.

That bad man is suffering from cancer and he is going to die.

-He is looking for the Nagmani. -Nagmani?

-You know what the Nagmani is? -I don't know.

It will make him immortal.

So he wants to lure the Snake Goddess to him

so that the Snake Goddess gives him the Nagmani.

Nagmani?

The Nagmani is what will make him immortal.

-Understand? -Yes, I got it.

Okay, I am off.

So that you can prepare for the next episode.

-Wear nice clothes. -Yes.

Smile.

Okay, I'll go.

You go away, beyond the mill.

Go to the abandoned mill by the crematorium

where I will be cremated tomorrow.

Viku...

It's Mama...

She's dead.

Where did she want to be cremated?

Don't you dare die one me!

She'll be coming soon!

Sir, it's not well. I will get water.

What happened, sir?

What have I done?

It's not what you've done.

It's what you're about to do.

Now she'll smell his shit on you from across the city.

Man, this scoundrel's going to drop dead any second.

You'll have to run!

I am fishing today and you're the bait.

Bring her to me.

Come and get him.

Pick that up.

In the evening, she kissed my forehead...

and said, "I'll be a grandma."

Vice, she's gone.

He is with us, Maya.

I'll be back.

Hurry up.

Hurry up.

Go fast and hurry up.

-Sir. -Keys.

Sir, but where are we going?

I want to see what I couldn't see until today.

You go, girl.

What do you think of my suit?

Oh, that's right. You can't see me.

I designed it just for you.

Now get up kid. Sorry.

Can't have you full strength, oh, no.

Lyre music at ninety decibels.

Try.

Come get your lover.

A little bit of this...

That's what you want.

You can reach it.

Now we're going to talk about what I want.

Look at me.

I want the Nagmani.

Time to give it up.

I want the Nagmani.

I will not die of this cancer.

Give me immortality.

Spit it up.

Police.

Drop your weapon. Naveen, are you okay?

Got him, sir.

I know you.

You don't know what you've done.

Shut up.

You ruined everything, you cops.

Okay, don't worry. Nothing will happen to you.

You ruined everything.

Get up.

Look at me.

-I am sorry, sir. -You'll be okay. You'll be okay

No, no, Naveen. Everything will be all right.

Everything will be fine.

No!

I'll kill you.

Help me. Please.

You don't get off that easy.

Breathe, breathe, breathe.
