Kaun Hai? is an Indian Hindi horror anthology television series produced by Contiloe Entertainment. It premiered 29 June 2018 on Colors TV and ended on 14 October that same year, lasting two seasons.

Kaun Hai? season 1 featured an episodic cast and finished off with 33 episodes on 16 September 2018 to make way for Kaun Hai? 2, a series for 8 episodes starring real-life couple Vatsal Sheth and Ishita Dutta with Amrapali Gupta in a negative role.

Plot

Season 1

The program is based on that real fear, experienced by people in haunted places.[2]

Season 2

The story starts with a battle of the Daityas and the Puranas because the Daityas wanted to open the door to hell and take control of the world by letting Asuras run rampant. While the Daityas are Diti (Amrapali Gupta), her elder son Hiranyakashipu (Arpit Ranka), and her younger son Hiranyaksha (Vatsal Sheth); the Puranas include Hiranyakashipu's son, Prahlad, and his teacher Anandi (Neetha Shetty), both of whom are devotees of Lord Vishnu. In the battle, Hrinayakashipu is killed by Vishnu’s Narasimha avatar. Later, Hiranyaksha also dies at the hands of Vishnu, but he vows that he will reincarnate to fulfill his destiny and make his mother the queen of the world.

Thousands of years later, a child named Yatin Chaudhary is born and is revealed to be Hiranyaksha's reincarnation. Diti starts working in the Chaudhary house as Yatin’s nanny. Diti’s reality is found out by Krishika, Yatin’s biological mother, but Krishika is killed by her.

25 Years Later

Yatin has grown up and is a 24 year-old boy, having the powers of Hiranyaksha from his past with the help of Diti, who has confined Krishika’s spirit in a secret room to suppress Yatin’s goodness. Hiranyakashipu’s spirit is alive through the flames and he meets Yatin and Diti. He tells them to complete the mission so he can be alive again.

The next day, Yatin sees Vaishnavi (Ishita Dutta), a beautiful innocent girl who is the daughter of Dutta (Inder's rival). Later it is revealed that Vaishnavi is the reincarnation of Vishnu’s Narasimha avatar. Vaishnavi is unaware of her real identity.

Diti encourages Yatin to kill Vaishnavi, but only after they get married. The only way to get the doors of hell to open is by killing Vaishnavi and stealing her powers. Her powers will awaken only after her marriage with Yatin.

Yatin woos Vaishnavi as per plan. However, Vaishnavi’s dad is against their relationship. Diti calls upon a blood-sucking witch to control Dutta and get him to agree to the wedding.

Meanwhile, Anandi tries to reveal Vaishnavi’s real identity to her but Vaishnavi isn’t willing to trust her and thinks Anandi is crazy.

Yatin's goodness starts to prevail over him and he starts falling for Vaishnavi. Vaishnavi and Yatin get married even after the Puranas try to stop their union. After the wedding, Vaishnavi starts gaining her power.

Later, Yatin fails to kill Vaishnavi on their wedding night and realizes he truly loves her and can’t hurt her. Vaishnavi learns the truth about herself and her destiny. She is hurt to know that Yatin betrayed her.

On the other hand, Prahlada sacrifices himself to bring his father back to life so Vaishnavi can end him once and for all.

Hiranyakashipu encourages Yatin to kill Vaishnavi but Yatin isn’t able to. In rage, Hiranyakashipu stabs Yatin and decides to take revenge on Narashima for what happened in the past. However, he ends up dying the same death.

Time runs out as the three stars go past their alignment. Diti vanishes as Asuras are eliminated once and for all. Yatin dies in Vaishnavi’s arms and vows to be with her in each reincarnation.
