Spoilers ahead
During a solar eclipse in 1986, young Naina Shah, Urmila Matondkar, sits in the backseat of her England-based father’s car when a shard of windshield shatters and blinds her. Her parents perish in the crash, and she is raised by her paternal grandmother, Amardeep Jha as Somabai. Years later, a successful corneal transplant restores her vision, but she begins to experience unsettling vision problems: she sees hooded figures and senses people dying, a pattern that a cautious psychiatrist, Dr. Samir Patel, Anuj Sawhney, initially attributes to hallucinations. When Naina later reports seeing someone else in her mirror, Dr. Patel decides to trace the donor of the cornea.
