Another crap fest from the Bhatt camp. Whither the man who made sublime stuff like Arth and Saransh? And they couldn't even bother to give credit to Pakistani singer Atif Aslam for the only good thing about the film - the song 'Woh Lamhe'. People seem to think it has been sung by Roopkumar Rathod. Why are the Bhatts promoting mediocre, nay, abysmal actors like Emraan Hashmi and Udita Goswami so heavily? This from the people who have worked with the likes of Shabana Azmi and Smita Patil. Really makes me wonder (and gag). And it wouldn't p*** one off so royally if they would just be honest about it and say yes, we are churning out crap because it's cheap and we are lazy and self-satisfied. Instead the pretence that they are producing art. Boo Hiss!

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 ......

Oh this one is a must-watch!!! Emraan Hashmi is absolutely brilliant in this movie. Even though this flick is a copy of Hollywood's "Out of Time", it surpasses its predecessor and is the perfect thriller to watch, especially late at night.The other co-stars Shamita Shetty(Sonia)and newcomer Udita Goswami(Anna) have also given a superb performance. An estrangement between Siddharth Mehra (Emraan) and his wife Sonia leads him straight into the arms of seductress Anna.But this passion is short-lived as Siddharth is drawn into a web of treachery that leaves him struggling not only to prove his innocence but also to keep his affair secret from his wife. The chemistry between Anna and Siddharth sizzles, but the love Siddharth has for Sonia is equally evident.Above all, its such a pleasure to be led on an emotional roller coaster by Siddharth. Watch closely the emotional by-play on Siddharth's face. He has really portrayed all the emotions well, lust, desire, contempt, anger, deception,apprehension, etc.He has a really expressive face, and his voice adapts very well to the mood he's supposed to play. Injecting humor into the tense drama is Siddharth's friend James. Mr.Bhatt is well-known for steamy scenes in his movies, but then, he's not a father figure to the youth..he's just what he is...a film producer, who is out there only to entertain us...He's not there to reform or lead astray the youth.So, please stop pointing fingers at him.He's provided us with a great thriller in Zeher, and if one hasn't watched its Hollywood copy, Zeher is really unpredictable, with twists and turns, and a great climax.The scenic backdrop of Goa is perfect for this movie. The sound track is amazing....Woh Lamhe is a great song to listen to in both, the slow and the fast version. All of Emraan's movies are good, but in Zeher he plays a very mature character, unlike his other boyish roles(eg Aashiq Banaya Apne), and he pulls it off perfectly with a capital P. I have watched this movie about 24 times to date, and each time i've enjoyed it as if it were the first time...The song "Woh Lamhe" holds a special meaning for me, because i've recently lost the love of my life due to a huge misunderstanding, which so far i've been unable to remove. I can go on writing about this movie...Its my favorite Bollywood movie ever, and Emraan is a heart-throb, but i'll end my review here with a recommendation to watch this movie. Its worth your time. P.S Emraan...we want more of you, we love you,from Pakistan.

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!
