1920 London is an Indian horror film directed by Tinu Suresh Desai. It is the third installment in the successful 1920 (film series),[3] after 1920 and 1920: The Evil Returns. The film stars Sharman Joshi, Meera Chopra, and Vishal Karwal in lead roles and Sagar Saikia as an antagonist.
Plot:
The film opens into the life of Shivangi, princess of a Rajasthan royal house( In Sikar), now living in London with her husband Kunwar Veer Singh. They make a happy home until one day when Veer develops a minor illness that soon flares up into a wasting disease shriveling his body and shrinking his head. Veer is hospitalized and his symptoms worsen: his body begins to contort unnaturally and he begins growling in strange languages. The doctors seem to diagnose it as a strange bacteriophage (no cure available). Shivangi is frightened; Veer is just not the same; and Shivangi's handmaiden, Kesar Ma, quickly calls it black magic.
Shivangi is puzzled. Who would visit black magic on Veer and why? Kesar Ma thinks it is because Veer's father, the King, had two wives and the second wife wanted Veer, the heir, out of the way. The film moves to Rajasthan. A prince is possessed by a witch-demon and the King brings in an exorcist. This exorcist attempts to confront the witch by entering the other realm (through a mirror) but is soon thrown out, too powerless for the witch. The exorcist refers the King to the most powerful spiritual master in the land, Mewar Baba, also known as Jai Singh Gujjar. This Jai, singh gujjar a former convict, arrives and successfully performs the exorcism.
Jai prepares his final assault on the witch. Jai invokes his own spiritual master through a letter. The master chastises Jai for acting in haste and then regretfully says that the witch will not leave without taking a soul. The master directs Jai to a church where he receives a set of charmed Celtic daggers. Jai prepares a charm to attack the witch. He enters the witch realm and recovers the amulet. The witch attacks ferociously and is about to stop Shivangi when Jai smashes the mirror (thus closing the portal) so Shivangi can burn the amulet and free her husband. Shivangi sees Jai smile peacefully as Veer comes to life. Some weeks later Veer and Shivangi find the letter of correspondence between Jai and his master. Jai had offered his soul so Veer could be freed. Veer is touched and places Jai's photograph upon his mantelpiece as the film end
