Synopsis
Ash Mistry travels to Varanasi with his younger sister Lucky and their aunt and uncle, because their uncle has been asked to translate an ancient manuscript for an eccentric millionaire, Lord Savage. Ash suspects Savage is up to no good. Savage's servants turn out to be shape-shifting demons, and Ash begins to dream of battles from the Ramayana. When the demons kill his aunt and uncle, Ash and his sister must hide in the city, and he learns about a destiny tied to the old stories. Savage's plan is to open the Iron Gates that have held the demon king Ravana back for four thousand years, and Ash must stop him.
