Perhaps all the horror there was, has been sucked out of 1920.Source: Disclaimer: This plugin has been coded to automatically quote data from. Besides one extended exorcism scene, and the painstaking make-up that shows Veer's gradual degradation by the spirit, this is a drab effort with hardly a shock sandwiched between all the frills, frocks and Rajput finery. Meera Chopra is unimpressive as the helpless wife while Karwal spends most of the film lying in a bed being eaten away by the evil spirit. Sharman Joshi tries hard to play menacing, mysterious and repentant but he's just out of step in the part of an exorcist. A jilted lover with black magic expertise is hardly likely to be a saint. The story relies on pulling off one major twist, but it's a rather obvious one and once you figure it out the sporadic and half-hearted attempts at grisly, jumpy scares ebb away. In spite of having been dumped and served jail term because of Shivangi's betrayal, Jai travels to London to save Veer. He turns out to be none other than her former lover, Jai (Sharman Joshi). Fearing that a dangerous spirit has possessed him, she approaches a renowned exorcist. Shivangi (Meera Chopra) returns to India to seek help as she sees her husband Veer Singh's (Vishal Karwal) health decline dramatically. A spirit seeps out and possesses the husband. The life of a happily married young couple in London changes horrifyingly after the arrival of a surprise gift from India.
This is a fashion forward Victorian era! If one were to dwell on authenticity, it would be hard to get past the changing length of Sharman Joshi's beard and hair.
Desai's 2016 film is set between in 1920s London and Rajasthan.However period correctness is clearly not a priority with the filmmaker as we see Shivangi, a royal married woman with her head uncovered in a Rajput court, and gliding around her manor in the UK with her knees and arms exposed. In 2012's 1920: The Evil Returns, the director, cast and locations were new, but the story revisited the themes of possession and evil spirits idea. The fascination began in 2008 with 1920, which was centred around a ghostly stately manor and an exorcism.
Directed by Tinu Suresh Desai, 1920 London is the third supernatural drama produced by Vikram Bhatt set in that year.
