The novel Mandarayakshi written by Vinod Narayanan put forward a completely different level of enjoyment from the magic novel literature that has existed in Malayalam so far. A young woman named Salome married a rich disabled man. She has a boyfriend. She approached a sorcerer to live with him and take possession of her husband's property. She should be able to kill her husband without leaving any evidence. It should be possible through a magical process. Then she had to be a part of six strange murders. The first part was completed with the novel Mandarayakshi. Durgashtami is the second part of that novel. Vinod Narayanan presents Durgashtami, an intense thriller magical novel infused with the characters of Mandarayakshi.

A popular horror thriller novel by the famous novelist Vinod Narayanan who has written more than 160 books.
