In a fit of rage, Brahma banishes his star pupil from Swarglok. Mortally wounded, and anguished at Brahma�s unfair punishment, the man struggles to survive in tamastamah prabha, the hell of hells. In time, he becomes the Dark Lord; the most feared figure in Pataal Lok, who swears to destroy Brahma.

Brahma�s curse sets in motion a chain of events that threatens to alter the fate of the three worlds. Vasudev, the brave Prince of Bateshwar, becomes the hunter of Asura assassins; his closest friend, Kansa, almost dies saving his sister, Devki, from a group of deadly monsters; and the most valiant kings in Mrityulok turn over to the dark side, driven by forces beyond their control.

Only one person threatens the Dark Lord�s well-laid plans�Devki, the beautiful princess of Madhuvan, who is destined to give birth to the warrior Krishna.
