Hisss

Snake goddess takes on a human form to save its mate from a dying westerner who believes her essence will cure his disease. She roams around the city looking for her mate, causing mayhem on the way.

The movie is beautifully shot with cultural clues very different from that of west. You need to be raised with the kind of folk lore this movie is based on to appreciate the mood and its implications. There are some erotic scenes that involves semi nudity along the way.

There's kind of a ruthlessness in the scenes when the snake goddess makes her attack. It seems more violent than western movie's violence that's mostly based on gun shooting.

It's an interesting movie to watch, and also enjoy the atmosphere of India at the same time.

It was honestly so boring and repetitive, confusing and messed up all together. Gives wrong understanding of the Hindu God and brainwashes peoples minds! It is one of those movies that gives Hindi movies a bad name... Also the effects were not generated correctly, lots of faulty mistakes.. Computer editing is a whole step ahead of what they had in this movie. Not good for younger audiences (and even older ones). This movie is senseless and has no point, it is a movie which is nothing but good for brainwashing and confusing peoples' minds. When comparing to a movie like Wake Up Sid or Black for example, it would have had a rating as 1/10... Play with caution and be aware of your audience!

A brilliant story plot ruined by the story writer who has no clue about this Indian myth. What a waste of lot of talents.

I went into this with friends wanting a fun "so bad it's good experience" but it can't even be that. There were a few good effects early on that I actually enjoyed but the movie quickly becomes incredibly boring. It's overall too boring to be "so bad it's good" and too bad to be genuinely good. Id avoid this one and watch Clash of the Titans(81) for a more enjoyable snake woman. I'd love to go in depth scene to scene to pick out every problem but the thought of sitting through it again makes me sleepy. If you want to watch it definitely see it with friends since they'll be much more entertaining.

Not really a Bollywood fan, but I watched it because of special makeup effects legend Robert Kurtzman, who designed the looks of the snake woman and also the director of this film is Jennifer Chambers Lynch. Really loved the look of Nagin, the transformation sequences and some brutal death scenes which you don't usually see in an Indian film. Mallika Sherawat gave a great performance and I gotta say that she can really slither. Seen a lot of negative reviews, but for me, it's not bad at all.
