The Gujarati film "Jhamkudi" plunges into this very premise, exploring the chilling legend of a witch and the darkness she casts upon the village of Raniwada.

When real estate agent Bablo and Kumud, an heir to the royal family, return to Raniwada, they are forced to confront this deep-seated terror and attempt to break the witch's curse, saving the village from its long-standing plight. The film has generated considerable buzz, particularly surrounding its depiction of local folklore and its attempt to create a genuinely frightening cinematic experience within a regional context. The trailer, released on May 31st, offers glimpses of the films eerie atmosphere, stirring interest in the witch Jhamkudi and the dark secrets of Raniwada.
