SPOOKS 5: FAN FEVER
Rumors: Dark Lore From India
07/06/23 • 15 min
Most of us think Himesh Reshammiya’s popularity was fuelled by his baseball cap, signature nasal twang and proficiency with mixing qawwali and modern beats. But some say the actual cause... is ghosts. Why did multiple villages in Gujarat ban his song ‘Jhalak Dikhla ja’? Did they really believe it caused listeners to become possessed by spirits?

Or is she just the most recent phase in a long-running cultural fascination with snakes?
