Zid

Zid
(2014)

Zid is a Hindi Erotic Thriller film directed by Vivek Agnihotri and produced by Anubhav Sinha in association with Anubhav Sinha Productions Pvt Ltd and Benaras Media Works.

Story: ZID starts off with a flashback which has the film's protagonist Rohan (Karanvir Sharma), a crime reporter with 'The Daily'(a newspaper based in Goa), narrating an incident to his newspaper's editor (Mohan Kapoor) and the area's DSP (Deputy Superintendent of Police). He says that with the help of the editor, he found a rented house at his friend's outhouse located far away from the rest of Goan civilization. Even though the said place looks haunted, Rohan still adjusts himself to the situation despite having 'an absolute motionless and emotionless owner' who is wheel chair driven throughout and who also happens to be the father of Maya (Mannara Chopra). Well, she's apparently a nurse, but swings from a tree all day. For Maya, it is love at first sight when she sees Rohan, who incidentally is 'recovering' from a breakup with Priya (Shraddha Das), his girlfriend of many years and who is now settled in London. While Maya leaves no stone unturned to get Rohan's attention, Rohan seems to be still 'lost in love' about Priya.
Maya instantly falls in love with Rohan, and this love soon turns into an obsession. She calls her sister and reveals her feeling for him. From the start it is obvious that there is no one at the other end of the line. She even enters Ronnie's room and picks a picture out of his photo-frame. He finds it missing, but does nothing to figure out how and why? She spots a picture of her on his desktop (a random picture he had clicked during his ferry ride to the outhouse, before he had even met her), and assumes that he's in love with her.
Rohan is not in love with her, but thinks she is strange and cute, so he plans a date-night at a nightclub. There he bumps into a girl named Nancy. Maya's left with uncontrollable rage when sees him dancing with Nancy, and they quickly leave the bar. On their way back, he continues drinking while driving, their car meets with an accident when it collides with a bike which was being driven by Nancy, who 'incidentally' happens to be Priya's step sister. She falls off the road and rolls down a slope. Ronnie turns hysterical and is desperate to save the girl. But instead of doing anything, he waits on the road and screams while Maya rushes to save the girl because she is a nurse.
The next morning, it's all over the news and the cops are on the case. The girl is found dead, and Ronnie panics because he could be identified in the case. Enter detective Moses with a cheeky grin and annoying laugh. Priya comes back to India from London to hunt for Nancy's killers. Well, at this point we also get to know that Nancy was her step-sister, so Moses suspects that she killed Nancy for her money and wealth and Rohan is her partner-in-crime.
In the meanwhile, Maya does everything wrong to save Rohan in this case. He tells his boss that his car is in the garage, but she dumps the car in a lake so that no one can trace it ever. She even takes off her tee to dive into the lake to show him where the car rests in peace.
Investigations reveal that Nancy had a chance to live even after she was hit by the car, but in reality she was murdered. Priya visits Rohan at his outhouse, and requests him to help her find the murderer. Soon, they warm up to each other again. Their secret meetings move from restaurants to the bedroom. Rohan even ditches Maya's dinner date to spend a night with Priya. Sparks fly again, and kissing leads to love-making. While all this is happening Maya walks into Priya's bedroom and witnesses the lovers in action.
Maya's lunacy reaches new heights. The next day Rohan's pup goes missing, shockingly she fed him to her alligator. Priya finds out that Rohan was at the same bar as Nancy the night she was killed. She feels cheated and betrayed. Priya lands up at the outhouse and starts accusing Maya for everything - including Nancy's murder. They get into a brawl, almost on the verge of killing each other. In the middle of this, Maya finds time to call Rohan to invite him to witness the pow-wow. Rohan arrives, but she attacks him on the head from behind and he suffers a black-out.
Maya rushes to leave her house, but finds Moses there. She wastes no time in killing him. Rohan wakes up and walks into a dark cabin between the woods to find out 'everything-you-want-to-know-about-Maya'.
There are her childhood and adulthood pictures pasted on the walls, and his picture, along with Nancy, Priya, Moses, Bobby (with a red cross on the people who are dead). Maya reappears and reveals it all to him. She also tells him that she had killed her own sister (the dead girl on the other side of her phone) because of jealousy and insecurity.
Maya then blindfolds Rohan, and takes him to the top of a lighthouse. Her plan is to exchange wedding vows with him (so she's dressed in a red gown) for the special moment. She tells him to make love to her, and he obliges.
All this while Priya is dangling in mid-air, on a suspended chair. Rohan lights a cigarette, and spills a glass of wine on it (Maya is orgasmic at this point); causing a fire to break out. Maya pulls the gun on him, Rohan snatches the gun from her hand (which he could have done way before) and throws her off the lighthouse. Now she's dangling from the rod along with Priya. Hilarious! Well eventually, Rohan manages to pull Priya on the top of the lighthouse and save her. After that they both try saving Maya too, but she lets go and falls into the water.
The story doesn't end here. The supposed twist is this. The whole story as we saw it was narrated by Rohan to the DCP in the presence of his editor.
The DCP is convinced by his heart-wrenching story and tells him that he will be out on bail. Rohan is relieved, and as he walks out the real story is revealed. It was all a game-plan by Rohan and Priya. In quick shots they show us how he killed Nancy, threatened Maya and eventually killed her. All this for only claiming Nancy's property. All the characters were victims of his devious design. Rohan ends with saying that is important to create a good story, doesn't matter if it is true or untrue.
