The story picks up twelve years after the events of the first film, when Atharva saves his daughter Arya from the effects of hypnosis—only to discover that the spell never really left her.

From the trailer, it’s evident that the sequel is set in a girls’ school, where the students appear to be under some form of mysterious control. The story begins on an ordinary morning in Gujarat, but things take a horrifying turn by noon when 10 school girls mysteriously jump from the terrace under the influence of an unknown “uncle.” When Atharva hears of this, he is reminded of a similar incident that happened with his daughter Arya twelve years ago.
What will Atharva do next? Will the other girls survive? Can they break free from the spell? These questions will only be answered when the film hits the screens.
After the huge success of Vash, the journey continues with Vash Level 2 – darker, deeper, and even more thrilling. The trailer has already planted the seed of fear, and when the film releases, it is set to grow into a full-blown nightmare on the big screen.
