Book review: Dakini by K Hari Kumar * Title: Dakini. * Author: K. Hari Kumar. * Genre: Fiction/ Horror. * Pages: 368. * Publisher: DocDivaTraveller Dakini - Book Review - Wordsopedia
A remake of the Korean hit Midnight Runners , featuring two female police trainees.
It is more than a ghost story; reviewers from Wordsopedia and News18 note its heavy themes of misogyny and the "social horror" of blind superstition. 🎬 The Movie: Dakini (2018) & Saakini Daakini (2022)
This "Indo-Gothic" horror story has been praised for blending Indian folklore with sharp social commentary.
Critics highlight the "cinematic" prose that brings the ominous Kalibann forest to life.
