In the cultures of the Indian subcontinent, it can be confusing to distinguish between demons, spirits, and deities. Unlike in the Western hemisphere, where there is a clear separation between “good” and “evil,” things are more complicated there.

While Nishi is definitely on the harmful and malicious side, it also embodies the intricate and very complex nature of spiritual beings in India.
