Por que a avó em Tumbbad precisava ser alimentada todos os dias?

4

In the Indian Hindi-language horror film Tumbbad(2018), the cursed grandmother who is chained and locked in a room needs to be fed everyday in order to keep her sleeping. But if she is not fed on time, she wakes up.

Also she could be put to sleep easily by saying,

"Sleep otherwise Hastar will come".

Hastar is a demon god whose touch cursed grandmother.

This line was used on cursed people to put them to sleep. Feeding cursed people was not an easy task as they were some 100 year old physically deformed and mentally unstable. They were cursed with eternal life and always hungry for food.

My question is, why do they need to feed her everyday when she could be put to sleep by saying that one line?

The cursed woman who wakes and demands food every night is the great grandmother of the lord Sarkar:

Vinayak: She's Sarkar's great grandmother.
         I'm sure she knows something about the hidden treasure.

Vinayak's mother serves Sarkar, and Sarkar is Vinayak's father. It seems that (among other services) the lord expects Vinayak's mother to feed the cursed "grandmother" every night:

Mother:  You dare to swear at your father?
Vinayak: Tell him ... 
         We won't look after his old hag unless he gives us the coin.

So you could argue that the mother feeds the cursed woman partly because of family ties, but mostly because her lord demands this of her.

Because according to the story The demon or cursed God didn't get food only gold.... So he is always hungry when hastar bit anyone the person becomes cursed & his medium for food....... Indirectly demon eats from grandmother..... And keep her alive for it.
