The effects of rotation on the scalar field in the spacetime with the distortion of a vertical line to a vertical spiral are investigated. By analysing the upper limit of the radial coordinate that stems from the effects of rotation and the topology of the defect, the upper limit of the radial coordinate is considered as a boundary condition analogous to a hard-wall confining potential. Then, a relativistic spectrum of energy is obtained in a particular case. In addition, a relativistic analogue of the Aharonov-Bohm effect for bound states is analysed.
