Plot: The story follows a middle-aged miser, played by Akhilendra Mishra, who exploits a roadside chaat-seller before encountering a mysterious trail of ₹20 notes on a deserted road. Driven by insatiable greed, he follows the money into a dense forest, ignoring ominous warnings—including a nearby accident and frantic calls from his daughter—only to discover the "dreadful" origin of the trail.
