Zeher

Do you like soapy actors and actresses? Soapy lines and writing? Soapy camera work? Soapy music? Oh, and stolen plots and cliches? Then this movie is for you. I gave it the extra star for subtitle quality - very good!

Bhatt favorite Emran Hashmi attempts to prove his worth once again and again fails to do so. Udita Goswani also is a damp squib as she lacks expressions and just provides steam to the movie. Shamita Shetty, however, easily steals the show. With Mohabbatein being history, she desperately needed to be relaunched. After losing a lot of weight and having a much more glamorous look, Shamita also bags a powerful role in which she proves that she is here to stay. She does an excellent job, especially in her confrontation scenes with Emran, displaying anger, frustration, suspicion, and sorrow very well. The story is quite interesting. The first half is awesome, but it starts to slow down a bit in the second half. However, in the end it is still a good movie. Songs are good, but Woh Lamhe is undoubtedly the best track of this album and one of the best of 2005.

Zeher is the story of a Goa-based police officer Siddarth(Emran Hashmi)who has parted off from his wife Sonia(Shamita Shetty) because he feels that women cannot share the same profession as men do . His co-officer James(Ninad) tries to fill up the gap between them but he fails . One day he meets a drug dealer who is along with his wife Anna(Udita Goswami) . Anna is very ill-treated by his husband , this creates some sympathy in the mind of Siddarth for Anna . Soon , this sympathy turns out into love as Anna tries to meet Siddarth when her husband is out of town . Their relationship continues when one day Siddarth comes to know that Anna is pregnant and allegedly he is the father of coming child . The doctor (Dr. Amitabh Khanna) even tells that Anna is suffering from Cancer and has 3 months to go if she is not shifted to a Cancer Hospital in Bombay . As the treatment costs were very high Anna decides to take a LIC-policy and makes Siddarth as its beneficial . Sometimes later , Siddarth comes to know from James that Anna's house is caught in fire and by the time he reaches the spot the couple had died . Then comes the twist in the story as Sonia had been assigned to investigate this death-case . Siddarth is afraid and doesn't wants Sonia to know about her relationship with Anna . He tries to wipe out every evidence that connects her with Anna . For what follows later you need to watch the movie ......

I Must start by saying I enjoyed this movie, I Laughed my a** off. ;-) This movie is a frame to frame copy of "Out of Time" (well almost 90%, with songs and some Indianisation) I'm not against such remake or copies, but please give the source movie some respect for god's sake, this movie has no creativity what so ever (apart from the songs, which are GOOD)

Emraan and Shamita have tried, but sadly failed. some of their expression are so funny, kinda childish. Notice Shamita's eyebrows, she surprised/stressed through the movie, that the standard expression she has sticked too

On whole, if need to pass your time, with friends passing comments, this can be enjoyed. otherwise it is a just below average movie, that too just because of the plot. (taking in consideration u have'nt seen "Out of time")

It was the best remake of out of time movie.I saw the movie and like it so much that I want to see it again.This movie is more than a thriller.I recommend it to be seen but pg is to be till 13 years of age The actor is a police whose wife leaves him (she enacts as police superintendent)so the husband takes a job in an insurance policy and finds himself addicted to a beautiful girl wanting the insurance.he secretly visits her, but one night her husband gets to know everything.Next night he plots a trap & burns his house and the actor arrives just at the seen.now the evidence is all against him.e joins the police force and his wife but needs to prove himself innocent before he is caught and at the same time he needs to find out who is making him guilty.
