The story of Jatadhara is set in a world where black magic is not merely a ritual but a powerful, dangerous weapon that can unleash forces beyond human control.
​The Conflict: The narrative centers on an epic clash between good and evil, specifically the forces of sacrifice and righteousness versus greed and vengeance.
​The Myth: The plot is driven by an ancient, forbidden dark ritual known as Pisacha Bandhanam, which binds malevolent spirits (Dhana Pisachi or a type of "pishachini") to guard hidden treasures.
​The Characters:
​Sudheer Babu plays the protagonist, a skeptic who initially dismisses the supernatural but is ultimately forced to become a ghost hunter to confront the darkness. His character is described as being "born from sacrifice."
​Sonakshi Sinha (in her Telugu debut) plays the powerful, enigmatic antagonist, the Dhana Pisachi—a vengeful spirit awakened by a greedy individual during a treasure hunt. Her character is a mystical figure "created by greed," who guards a hidden gold treasure for centuries.
​The Chase: A treasure hunt quickly escalates into a terrifying supernatural chase as ancient curses awaken and restless spirits return to claim what they believe is theirs, blurring the line between faith and fear.
