Plot
Season 1
The story is based on a Tamil novel Ragasiyamaga Oru Ragasiyam which was also made into a serial called Marmadesam by Indra Soundarrajan, and aired on television in the 90s.
The story begins with Inder (Mohammed Iqbal Khan), a reporter, who goes to Siddhipur's Kaalbhairav temple. He stays in the temple after the villagers leave. Alone at night, he hears strange sounds and the next morning he is found dead. Inspector Akshay (Arun Singh Rana) decides to stay in the temple to investigate. That night once again sounds of drums are heard followed by a gunshot. In the morning they find Akshay has gone missing.
A young man named Nandu (Rahul Sharma) arrives and tells the villagers that he has come to work as the village priest's assistant. He befriends the village chief, Dada Thakur's daughter, Namrata (Chhavi Pandey), and the priest's daughter, Gauri (Sargun Kaur Luthra).
A few days after Inder's death, his widow Preeti (Puja Joshi) and daughter Minty settle down in the village to find the truth of Inder's death. Namrata's brother, Aditya (Ahwaan Kumar), likes Preeti but she mistrusts everyone in the village. Nandu is revealed to be Inder's younger brother, Rahul, and is also investigating Inder's death secretly. Namrata and Aditya find out his identity but promise to keep his secret. Rahul and Namrata find Inder's camera footage but it leads them nowhere.
Nandu / Rahul wins the dahi haandi contest during Janmaashtami celebrations and asks Data Thakur permission to spend a night in the temple as his reward. Nandu survives but gets badly injured. Dada Thakur discovers Rahul's identity and asks Inder's family to leave the village. Rahul believes that someone disguises as Kaal Bhairav and kills people in the temple. At first he suspects the village head/Sarpanch and Shakti Thakur but they turn out to be innocent.
Gauri falls in love with Rahul, as does Namrata but Rahul is focussed on his search. Lakhanpal locks Gauri in the temple after sunset to avenge his insult. Gauri prays to Kaal Bhairav all night and is saved. She starts having dreams that turn to reality. Finally, it is revealed that the mystery behind all the murders is Namrata. When Aditya chances upon her truth, she is forced to kill her own brother.
While Rahul and Gauri are on the run from Lakhanpal, Data Thakur also discovers Namrata's secret and tries to fight her. She and her men overpower him and she reveals that she is avenging her mother's death who was killed by Data Thakur. She also wants to get the 9 golden Shiva Lingas (idols) and wants Rahul to return her love. She also reveals that she has left a trace of evidence implicating Data Thakur for all the murders.
Meanwhile, Rahul falls in love with Gauri. Preeti and Gauri's father accept their love but Gauri decides to wait till there is peace in the village. The story focuses on the search for the nine golden shiva lingas. Still pretending to be innocent, Namrata and Gauri look for them together by following Gauri's dreams though Namrata wants to kill Gauri once the search is over. Also searching for the idols are Rahul, Dr. Srivastava and CID Officer Yash Pal.
Namrata is secretly helped by her friend Latika (Simar Kaur Suri) who has kidnapped Data Thakur and Lakhan Pal to keep them quiet. Namrata succeeds in finding 5 of the 9 shiva lingas. Gradually, Gauri becomes aware of Namrata's true intentions. She succeeds in rescuing Data Thakur and Lakhan Pal and they join forces to expose Namrata. In trying to obtain another shiva linga, Namrata and Rahul meet a man who has the idol. Namrata emotionally manipulates him and he shows her how she can use magic to control Rahul. Latika tries to dissuade her but is rejected by Namrata. Namrata uses the magic on Rahul who tries to kill Gauri on Namrata's orders when she tells him about Namrata. Gauri is saved by Latika who seemingly mends her ways.
It is then revealed that Inder is still alive and living under the identity of Seth ji. He faked his death to obtain the nine idols for money. Latika is revealed to be Inder's second wife who has been working with him. She tries to kill Rahul in the temple but Namrata, who has reformed and is ready to repent, saves Rahul by stabbing Latika with a trishool. Inder then takes revenge by killing Namrata who dies in Rahul's arms.
However, the temple is surrounded by angry villagers. Inder threatens them that he has hidden bombs all across the village and will detonate them. At that moment, Rudra, the truck driver who claimed to be a messenger of God, is revealed to be none than Lord Kaal Bhairav in disguise, and comes to aid Rahul, Gauri and the other villagers. He kills Inder and restores the shiva lingas to the temple, and disappears along with Shambhu Baba, who is revealed to be his mount (vaahan).
