EXT. STREET LATE NIGHT

Street Lamp.
Glowing yellow light on the street. Camera Pans.

A Car is coming. Headlights on. It’s approaching and takes a

left turn.

INT. HOUSE NIGHT

Big door. As someone opens it from outside. Open the doors.

He is not quite visible till now. As darkness is there.
Goes back to the car and drives it in.

He goes out. Lock the house door. And comes back to the
other side of the car to take out his office side bag.
Takes it out. Locks the car by key.

As he is going up. Stairs going above. Round stairs.

He is going upstairs. While looking at his phone. He is
checking it. Some message pop up. Sound of the notification.
He is near to a door. Puts his phone into pocket.

Music on radio in house " Kahi door jab din dhal jaye".
Now he is walking in very silently. Like a thief or
something. As he looks in the room just adjacent to gate.
It’s dark there. No one inside. A little light coming from
bathroom as it’s door is little ajar.
As he turns back to look in kitchen. A lady is doing
something in the kitchen. We see only her back. She is in
kurta.

As Varun puts his bag silently on the dinner table. Opens

it. Take a gift box out. Looks like jewelery case. Opens it.
Necklace. He takes it. Walking towards the kitchen.

INT. KITCHEN NIGHT

Silently. Walks over to her. Behind her back. Woos her. She
is scared.

As she is scared and smiling also. Varun is laughing over
this thing.

He is having that necklace holding it back.

And shows the necklace. She is excited. Hugs him tightly.

As they are kissing.
NEHA

They are still hugging.
RANDOM SHOTS OF OBJECTS IN THE KITCHEN. (Knife and other
things)

They go apart. As she was making something.

VARUN

As he takes the knife from her hand. Tell her to go and
wait it.
Now he is cutting the onion on the slab.
As she kiss him on the cheek and leaves.

He is putting onion in the pan.

Takes out something from the cabins. Some spice. He took the
wrong one. Smells it. It’s too strong. Coughs.
He take another one. Take a little bit out. Put it in pan.

As the old music is still playing. Now the song is changed.

He is humming that song.
As he is trying to burn the onion completely in Oil.

Now he goes to the fridge in the kitchen. Opens it. Looks

for the Paneer. Looks little down. As we see something
wrapped in plastic. Blurred. He finds paneer. Takes it out.
Taking it to the slab. Cutting it into pieces. Putting it in
the pan.

CUT TO:
He is clearing the sweat over his head. Like a sign of
relief. Take a spoon. Tastes the curry.

He switches the gas off. Goes to the washbasin. Washes his

face. Looking into the mirror. While drying.
VARUN
Neha. Kaha gyi tum.

As he goes back into the kitchen. Taking the bowl out and
put it on the table.
VARUN
Kaha ho tum neha?

As he looks into the living room. No one is there.

While he is going to check another room. His phone rings.
Takes it out.

As varun is standing near a wall. Hand over it. Like he

wants to get this call cut.
RAKESH
Goodnight.

Varun cuts the phone. Like he is in a hurry.

He puts the phone on table. He goes into the second room.
Maybe she is taking rest. No one is there also. Complete
darkness.
VARUN

Now he goes back to the first room. It’s also dark.
Light coming from the bathroom door. Now he goes inside.
Open the bathroom door.

We see a bathtub. Camera moves up inside the bathtub. It’s
red. The water is completely red. As we go more up. Neha is
in there. In the same kurta. Dead Looks Dead.
Varun is on floor. He holds her hand.

As he shows the necklace. He tries to bring her up. Trying
to take her.

FADE IN.
FADE OUT.
He is sitting on the chair on dinner table. Putting some
Curry over rice.

As he passes the bowl.

VARUN
Lo Lo.

As camera moves back. We see Neha is sitting on chair. She

is dead. Wet clothes. Water dripping little bit.

He opens the fridge again.That wrap thing is in focus. We
see a finger with a ring over it wrapped inside.
