He meets a beautiful woman who is willing to accept him despite his disfigurement. But after a while, Srinivasan has doubts about the identity of this woman; he doubts that this woman is human. The novel was adapted into a film with same name starring Sathyan in 1968.[2] In 1993, Yakshi was shown in BBC's Off the Shelf program as 12 episodes.
