At Nashik in a College, tension erupts in the close-knit student group Lucifer after Arjun secures a coveted foreign internship while his friend Ravi fails. The next morning, Arjun mysteriously vanishes. Reviewing security footage, the group finds the corridor camera glitched to black right as Arjun disappeared, leading Kabir to realize someone intentionally cut the generator to create a blind spot. Kabir investigates the scene, finds Arjun's dropped ring, and enhances the video footage to spot a crucial detail: the kidnapper was wearing a pinky ring with a chipped diamond. After Arjun turns up alive but drugged and memory-wiped, Ravi offers Kabir a handshake, revealing the chipped ring on his finger. Confronted in the cafeteria, a smug Ravi confesses to drugging and kidnapping Arjun out of jealousy—only for Kabir to reveal his phone was recording the entire confession with the rest of the group listening in hiding.
