Kolkata, Feb 18 (IBNS): Textile tycoon and author Dhruv Somani recently launched his latest four-volume Bollywood book series, A Touch of Evil, which is a guide to Hindi cinema’s horror films.

Somani’s book series is a culmination of over 300 suspense, thriller and horror films.

It encapsulates the essence of a genre that has been largely untapped in terms of serious documentation.

Somani said: "Many of the films I have chosen to highlight have been path-breaking and are recognised as milestones in the history of Indian cinema. However, I have also included several films that one may have branded as ‘duds’ when they were released, yet they have a strong star cast and melodious music.

"They have also contributed in a significant way to shaping this genre, but they are underrated and will soon be forgotten if not for documentation that invites a resurgence and gives these films new and fair regard."

The 4-volume set is priced at Rs. 5999.

The book is also available at online platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, eBay
