Story

Krishna, who wants a modern girl as his wife, is forced to marry Devi, a village belle. But strange things happen when he discovers that his wife wants to become an actress.

‘Abhinetri’ has a simple enough storyline that starts off with a flashback showing Krishna (Prabhu) working with a Mumbai corporate. His ambition is to marry an English speaking westernized girl as he feels that it would give him a higher social standing given his village background.

Ironically, he gets married to Devi (Tamannah) while on a visit to his village due to family pressures. He makes all attempts to hide his marriage when he returns to Mumbai with Devi and this includes moving into an old apartment and trying to convince Devi to go back to the village. Things change hugely once Krishna and Devi settle into the apartment with Devi behaving like a different person altogether.

Soon enough, she attracts the attention of Raj (Sonu Sood), a huge film star, who signs her up for his next film. In parallel, Krishna figures out that Ruby, the previous occupant of the apartment had committed suicide and has now possessed Devi.
