When Aman proposes to Kaaya, neither he nor Kaaya know about the generational
curse that plagues Kaaya's family. As soon as Kaaya wears the engagement ring
and the couple drives off together, their car takes a spin and bounces of the
road almost killing the both of them. When Kaaya's parents hear about their
daughter's accident, they rush to the hospital to find an engagement ring on
their daughter's finger. Distraught, the father explains to the young couple
that three hundred years back their family had incurred the curse of an angry
Brahmin and that curse did not allow the daughter's of their family to be
married. The couple finds it hard to believe but there is little choice as their
lives are constantly in danger. Aman and Kaaya cannot live without each other,
but there is little that they can do till Aman meets Pashupathi who is the
master of the ways of the spiritual world. Pashupathi tells Aman that in some
cultures, there was a belief that a generational curse worked much after even
the person who had uttered the curse was dead because, it was believed, that an
evil curse when uttered stuck to an evil spirit and the spirit then became the
keeper of the curse and it was the duty of that evil spirit to make the curse
come true generation after generation. Aman asks Pashupathi if there was a way
to destroy the spirit and get rid of the curse. Pashupathi tells him that there
was a way but it was filled with peril. If he sets about to hunt and destroy a
spirit then the spirit would also know that it was being hunted. It would become
a war between man and the devil. Was he ready for it? Aman tells Pashupathi that
he would fight for his love... and so begins their journey. Through the world of
fear and intrigue and the eternal fight between good and evil. Will love conquer
all? Shaapit is the first film in India of its genre. It is an adventurous
horror love story that's never attempted before. |
