The film opens with a grotesque, hunchbacked brute kidnapping a young woman. We then flash back to Lee, a champion bodybuilder and commercial model who falls in love with a fashion model, Diya (Amy Jackson). However, a jealous industrialist and a vengeful make-up artist conspire to destroy Lee’s life. They inject him with a rare virus that deforms his muscles, breaks his bones, and turns him into a Quasimodo-like figure.
Rejected by society and believing his lover has betrayed him, Lee becomes the "Frankenstein" monster—seeking brutal, bone-crunching revenge against each conspirator. The film blends horror, body horror (reminiscent of The Fly), romance, and Shankar’s trademark visual effects. frankenstein 2014 filmyzilla

Cinematic history often sees “twin films” released in the same year (e.g., Antz & A Bug’s Life, Deep Impact & Armageddon). For Frankenstein, 2014 marked the 80th anniversary of James Whale’s classic 1931 film. Additionally, advances in prosthetic makeup and CGI allowed filmmakers to reimagine the creature without the iconic flat-top forehead. Both studios wanted to capitalize on the public’s enduring fascination with Shelley’s moral warning about unchecked science.
