A horrifying decapitated head. A CBI intern on an assignment finds mysterious 'Two Dots' from a cold case. Human DNA is extracted from a mosquito's stomach. "Why had Harold Shipman killed 250 women?" A question of criminal psychology enters the picture. Against the corrupt system, a CBI intern leaves no stone unturned to dig the root of a cold-blooded serial killer.

Power: a word that's as dissociated from women in real life as it's seen to be embodied by them through ideas of Shakti. Reduced to mere tropes in Indian mythology - the innocent Kanya, seductive Apsara, warrior-like Veera, the noble Rani, nurturing Maa, the wise Rishika - the images of feminine mystique are reservoirs of power.
