Premise

Throughout her childhood, Chuni aspires to be a ghost hunter. Chuni wants to meet a ghost but does not want to marry because she is scared of in-laws. Coincidentally, she grows up to marry Nirbhik, who lives in a haunted house "Abhoy Bhavan", (later on which turns out to be "Bhoy Bhavan") with a ghost called Panna. After the marriage, Panna, the vengeful ghost of the former owner of the house makes Chuni's life miserable.
