While the father is nonchalant about it, the mother is concerned about leaving their daughter Isha ([[Isha Sharvani]]) at home. She is concerned about her safety and her shenanigans. After the couple leave, the daughter soon becomes aware of someone inside the house. By then it is too late as she wakes up tied to a chair in her house. Shen then notices that the thief has on a mask and after a few attempts at trying to free herself, the thief asks her to quiet down. After Isha continues to struggle, it is revealed that she has an Asthma issue and asks the thief to get her the inhaler which is in her bag. While getting the inhaler the thief ([[Nivin Pauly]]) inadvertently removes his mask. He threatens her to be quiet after she asks to be untied. As the thief begins to search drawers, Isha lets him know in which drawers the house valuables are. After taking all the jewels in the house, the thief is set to leave when Isha proposes an idea. She tells the thief that if he were to spend New Year's eve with her at home she would show him more of the expensive stuff in the house (it is revealed here that Isha's mother is really her step-mother and she harbors resentment against her step-mother). So the thief releases Isha. While Isha is excited about this stealing adventure, the thief is only interested in expensive things. As the night moves on, Isha gets very comfortable with the thief, even seducing him. They celebrate the New Year on the terrace with some intimate moments. At this point, it is obvious that the thief is drunk from the vine that belonged to Isha's father and Isha uses this to her advantage and ties the thief to the very chair she was tied to. The true suspense is revealed to the audience after this as she is not the actual daughter. She is also another thief who came before Nivin and tied up the actual daughter. | ||
