Plot
Dev Malhotra is returning home when his car breaks down at night, and a mysterious woman emerges, seeking his help. He takes her to a friendly doctor's hospital who concludes she has lost her memory. While in the hospital, the woman is terrorized by a spirit. Worried and concerned, especially since no family members responded to the woman's missing poster, Dev takes her home and names her Anamika (meaning an anonymous woman), introducing her to his maid and mother figure Shantabai. However, the spirit does not stop pursuing Anamika and terrorizes her once again. This prompts Shantabai to take Anamika to a blind woman named Kesar Ma, who deals with the occult. When she tries to interact with the spirit at midnight, the spirit possesses Kesar Ma's daughter Guddi and tries to strangle Anamika, before being interrupted.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Fear (2007 film)” as 2007 film directed by Vikram Bhatt. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the arts & letters register because the source frames it as 2007 film directed by Vikram Bhatt. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Object files, edition statements, performance records and contemporary criticism preserve different stages of the work’s history. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q130222768. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2007.
Rights, attribution and provenance may remain disputed even when a general reference summary presents a stable account. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
