The headline for the horror-drama 1920: Horrors of the Heart (2023) reads “There’s no escaping to the horror that awaits”. And that’s pretty accurate because after reading the plot description we can see that the poor young woman has all the odds against her in terms of staying alive, for her and her beloved ones.
The movie centers on Meghna, a young girl who decides to break the news of her love for Arjun to her father Dheeraj on her twenty-first birthday. Her worst nightmare comes alive when she discovers Dheeraj has killed himself. Meghna finds out that it is her mother Radhika who had not only abandoned them when she was a child but is also responsible for her father’s suicide. Unable to bear her mother’s betrayal, Meghna resolves to seek revenge and comes to live with Radhika and her current family to destroy them with a sinister plot of using her father’s spirit to bring havoc to Radhika and her family.
