The second play Prem Ki Bhooth Katha which was in Hindi, directed by

Dinesh Khanna

, was staged at

Bharat Bhawan

. An innocent soldier sentenced to hang until death for a murder that he did commit. In reality, he was with his girlfriend on that day, but he does not tell the court about her for the fear of humiliation. On that day another soldier died. A few years later a journalist was working to prove the existence of ghosts. During his investigation, he stumbles upon a ghost who solves the mystery of the murder.
