India | 82 | Action, Drama | 2017 | Feature Film (Live Action) | Hindi

According to legends, Banaras was found by Lord Shiva and hence is known as a holy religious site. Here, some mysteries were solved by the young, aspiring detective, Miss Rhea Sharma. This time, the case is not as easy as it seems. Pandit Ji, who has been given the responsibility to safeguard Saint Tulsidas’s Holy wooden footwear, has lost his peace as the holy footwear gets stolen. Hence, he hands over the case to the young detective Rhea, who plays a wonderful mind game in catching the real thief amongst the politician, antique dealers, thugs and frauds and brings the holy footwear back to where it belongs.

বাংলা

ঐতিহাসিকদের মতে, দেবতা শিবের আশীর্বাদে বেনারস শহরের জন্ম হয়। তখন থেকেই শহরটি তীর্থস্থান হিসেবে পরিচিতি পায়। বেনারস শহরের কিছু গোপন রহস্যের এর আগে সমাধান করেছিলেন তরুণ গোয়েন্দা মিস রিয়া শর্মা। কিন্তু এখন যে কেসটি তার হাতে এসে পড়েছে তা মোটেই সহজ নয়। সমাধান করতে হলে মিস রিয়াকে সাধু তুলসিদার পবিত্র খড়ম খুঁজে বের করতে হবে, যা এতদিন পন্ডিতমশাই পাহাড়া দিয়ে রেখেছিলেন। পন্ডিতমশাই পারতপক্ষে নিজে না পেরে কেসটি মিস রিয়ার হাতে তুলে দেন। রিয়া শর্মা বিভিন্ন কৌশলে বিভিন্ন মানুষের মাঝে জেরা চালিয়ে ঠিকই সেই হারানো খড়ম ফেরত নিয়ে আসেন জায়গামত।
