== Plot ==
A friend group of young adults travel to a new resort, 'Wonder-villa', arriving at night. While playing with a spirit board, they summon the spirits of 5 children (whom the friends had met earlier that day, not knowing they were dead). We learn how the children and their dance coach died in a traffic accident caused by a car driven by Amarbir, one of the group. The group feel guilty and decide to allow the children to go to Dance India Dance (DID) and dance as they had wanted. The children, wanting to dance once more for their mothers, agree, and they reach the DID finals. Unfortunately the method the group used to allow the children to be visible to the world stops working. The children, crying, ask God to help them one last time, for their mothers' sake. God grants their prayers and the children dance one final time with the help of the group of friends. As the dance ends the children transform into golden butterflies and leave for heaven, finally at peace.
