The diaries that were recovered from the spot in which Deepak wrote what was supposed to be orders from his dead father, his own troubled past and how he compensated for it by assuming an almost god-man like presence in the family makes this film almost a psychological thriller. It is an honest attempt at unraveling the fault lines in the society that leads to a photo-perfect family to behave in the absolute irrational way. The series is an attempt not just at documenting or re-creating an incident that happened in 2018 and shook Delhi’s social conscience to the core. Speaking with journalists and social commentators it also looks at the social intersection as to how the female members of the family right from the middle aged and young women folk to the eighty year old matriarch of the family willingly agreed to undergo a strange ritual to reunite with Deepak’s father. However, the second and the third episode reveals as to how despite having a bustling neighbourhood and many neighbours for company a family almost surrendered to Deepak’s psychotic behavior and behaved and obeyed him resulting in everyone’s death. On the surface of it the series looks like it is about how the family indulged in an occult practice and how their willing participation went all wrong ending in the death of all the family members.
