1920 is set in pre-independence times, marred by violence. It’s about a couple – Arjun (Rajneesh Duggal) and Lisa (Adah Sharma). The two are in love but while Arjun is a hindu Brahmin, Lisa is an anglo-Indian. They fight the world and get married. Arjun works as an architect and his work takes him to a huge castle in Palanpur. He has been told to break the house and rebuild a lovely hotel instead.

However, the palace has an eerie feel to it. But,Arjun is not the first architect to visit the palace. There had been two more but both died under mysterious circumstances. When Arjun and Lisa come to stay there, Lisa immediately starts feeling jittery. She experiences the untold and the paranormal. Arjun refuses to believe her until one day when the troubled soul of the castle overtakes Lisa. She reaches a stage where her life is under threat. This is when Arjun vows to know the mystery behind the palace. The palace’s history dates back to 1857 which shakes Arjun tothe core.

1920 is about love, lust, revenge – all of which culminate to make this horror flick a memorable experience. The best thing about 1920 is that the ghost does not wear funny masks and make funny faces.Instead, it all looks so real. You’ll be glued to your seat and nothing in the world can make you move.

Model-turned-actors Rajneesh Duggal and Adah Sharma have done a brilliant job. Asah has portrayed the ghost and the creepiness in an exceptional manner. Her expressions are sure to leave a mark on your mind. The cinematography is good and done aesthetically. The film is set in India with beautifully chosen locations.

Not much of music, but whatever little there is, is soulful and soothing to the ears. The film could have done without Rakhi Sawant’s item song, the only dull patch in the rug. It would not be a wonder if the movie fills it’s kitty with a lot of moolah – something unexpected of 1920. Watch 1920, it’s racy, it’s pacy and it leaves you haunted.
