Hisss (2010)

Hisss (also known as Nagin: The Snake Woman) is a 2010 film, directed by Jennifer Chambers Lynch.. Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat plays the lead role as Naagin.



Plot:
George States (Jeff Doucette) is suffering from last stage of brain cancer and has only six months to live. In order to prevent death and gain immortality, he decides to extract 'Nagmani' from a shape-shifting snake who can take human form, Nagin (Mallika Sherawat). He captures the male snake so that the nagin [the female] comes after the capturer to free her lover and thus he can obtain the nagmani by force. He keeps the male snake in a glass box where he electrocutes him. His plan works and the nagin starts following him. On her way she is helped by police inspector Irfan Khan and his wife Divya Dutta who is infertile. The nagin also helps few women: One being beaten mercilessly by her husband; one being raped by a man and so on. Finally she reaches George but finds her mate dead. Also George is wearing a 'suit' due to which the nagin cant see him. He captures her too and tries taking the nagmani but at that moment, Irfan Khan arrives and helps her. Angered at the murder of her mate in the hands of George, she takes a huge form: half snake, half woman and throws him in the same glass box where her mate was kept and electrocutes him. The ending shows George's rotten body still lying in the glass box, Irfan-Divya having a child and the Nagin's eggs hatching.
