This next segment is handled well. Whenever Disha is speaking through Sunita, she turns to face the group and has gleaming green eyes and wildly blowing hair. When Sunita is relaying questions and demands to Disha, she turns and looks upward, where we can see some odd reflections of Disha up in the ceiling. It's disorienting, and effective. Sunita asks what a such an old spirit wants with these kids. Disha says that she wants them all dead!

Shanti butts in here and says that she knows Disha is responsible for Kabir's death. Sunita asks Disha if that is true. Disha proudly claims credit for Kabir's death, as well as Nupur's. She goes on to say that she will kill anyone that tries to get in her way. Sunita says that they are all in her protection, and they've got Disha under control for now. Disha says that no one can command her, and she begins laughing maniacally.

Sunita tries to tell Disha what to do, but the laughter continues. The glass panes that had been reflecting Disha's image shatter, raining glass fragments onto the heads of the people below. Akshay tries to leap out of the way, but in the process falls halfway out of the protective circle. The moment he touches the floor outside of the ring, his body is flung across the room and into a wall by an unseen force. Manav starts to step out to help him, but Sunita halts him and says that no one is to step outside of the circle. Poor Akshay is being pummeled all over the room, slamming into pillars, walls, the floor, and anything in between. Sunita finally intervenes by holding a large crystal pendant that resembles a snowflake in front of Disha's spirit. This has the effect of making Disha look rather uncomfortable, and she flies out of the house.

Later that night, things have calmed down. We see the kids all having their own personal reflection time, as they remember the good times they had with Nupur and Kabir. Manav in particular is struggling with his thoughts, since Disha turned out to be dead. Sunita remarks that it is unfortunate that they were unable to complete the séance, since they didn't learn what Disha wanted, nor why she's so keen on killing the rest of them. Manav says that it doesn't really matter what they do, since it seems Disha is able to kill any of them whenever she wants to. Sunita agrees, and says that it is troubling that Disha has become so powerful. She also wonders why Nupur and Kabir were selected as they were. As she says this, we see Talli's eyes going wide as he remembers the book.

Talli runs off to the guest room and gets his bag. He finds the book inside and flips through some of the pages. He comes to a chapter entitled "Krishna Cottage," and looks up in surprise. He remembers that there was a sign outside of the cottage they all stayed in that had that printed on it. He begins to read this chapter, and has a similar vision as the two previous readers. He is about to leave the room to spread the word, when he is stopped by Akshay in the doorway. Talli says that Disha's tale is in this book. He also says that Nupur and Kabir had also read the book prior to getting killed. Akshay doesn't see where this is all going, so Talli spells it out for him - Disha didn't want anyone to know she was dead, so she whacked anyone that read her tale in the book.

Talli says they need to go to Krishna Cottage to get to the bottom of all this. He says this is the key, since they all stayed there the night of the engagement, which was also the day they all met Disha. He thinks that if they explore this place, they can figure out what to do about Disha. Akshay doesn't want Talli to go there, and says that he'll stop him from risking his life. Talli says that he feels responsible for what happened to their friends, and that it is his duty to go. That seems to end the discussion, since the next thing we see is Talli marching through the front door of the cottage.

We see a POV shot that follows Talli around, and eventually rushes towards his back. The second impact seems imminent, we see Talli's face go to a look of shock. He slowly turns around to look behind him. We see from the perspective of the POV shot again, only now it is tinted blue and distorted. Talli looks at us for a while, then the shot flies past his ear quickly, leaving him alone in the room without showing us what it was he saw. He continues walking through the house, until he comes across a large rock that looks familiar to him. He realizes that it is one of the images from the visions everyone's been getting from the book. This excites Talli, and he grabs the rock. Outside we can hear the puttering of a motorcycle, so Talli runs out to see who it is.

Luckily for all of us, it's Akshay. Talli happily shows him the rock, and says (somewhat mysteriously) that this is the reason Disha wants to kill them all. Akshay doesn't seem to understand (and neither did I), but Talli seems convinced that this is going to help them. He starts to walk towards the bike, and Akshay says they should take it to Sunita to see what she says.
