Vasu decides to bring a sequel to his super hit Chandramukhi (2005) after 18 years, only to destroy its popularity. Malayalam director Fazil made a pathbreaking masterpiece, \u201cManichitrathazhu\u201d (1993), so that others can copy paste and make money. But you don\u2019t ever surpass the original masterpiece. It\u2019s like, you can copy and paste \u201cThe Shawshank Redemption\u201d or any other masterpiece of your choice and make a good film, but you can never match it. Manichitrathazhu is one such Indian film that\u2019s not too popular in other markets because it comes from a small industry. There have been 4-5 remakes of Manichitrathazhu, and I don\u2019t need to tell you how all of them fail to match the legacy of the original masterwork. Now just tell me, if everyone couldn\u2019t match the original even after copy-pasting, then how would they even think of creating a new story as a sequel? How illogical and silly it is! Chandramukhi 2 is like, \u201cI want to sell a new product under the brand Chandramukhi (which isn\u2019t original) by telling the same story again as in the next chapter\u201d. When you watch Chandramukhi 2, and I hope you survive it (like I did), then you\u2019ll realise that you didn\u2019t actually watch Chandramukhi 2; it was the recipe of Chandramukhi again served in a different hotel. Manichitrathazhu was made in the 90s, and Chandramukhi 2 was made after 3 decades, but the storytelling is 3 decades behind Manichitrathazhu. It\u2019s an extremely pernicious and injurious watch. Believe me, you won\u2019t just scratch your head; you will slap yourself for watching it.<\/p>\n<p>Chandramukhi 2 is about a rich family struggling with problems in their lives, which is led by Ranganayagi (Raadhika Sarathkumar). They travel out of town and visit their deity\u2019s temple to seek blessings and arrange a special pooja that will solve their problems. Pandiyan (Raghava Lawrence) joins them with his niece and nephew, whom the family abandoned years ago. A priest tells them they can\u2019t attend Pooja at Devi\u2019s temple because Chandramukhi (Kangana Ranaut) has cursed the place, and whoever goes there gets killed instantly. Pandiyan still manages to light a lamp in the temple, making Chandramukhi more furious, but he isn\u2019t a normal person like others. It is then revealed that Pandiyan was Sengottaiyan, the man who caused Chandaramukhi\u2019s death. Seeking revenge as Durgashtami is near, Chandramukhi possesses one of the ladies in the house before coming to her real avatar. Will Pandiyan be able to save the family from Chandramukhi\u2019s curse?<\/p>\n<p>P. Vasu has written an utterly disastrous script with literally no original moments of its own. It\u2019s the same idea again, and the tricks are the same. Can\u2019t imagine someone trying to use the 90s pathbreaking trick of completing revenge in 2023, and that too with a terribly outdated presentation. Manichitrathazhu\/Chandramukhi was a psychological horror-thriller, as the film never presented Chandramukhi as a real ghost. Here, Mr. Vasu murdered that sentiment too by showing Chandramukhi as an evil ghost in real life. Even a medical term for personality disorder is killed here. How can you make a sequel by changing the identity of your main character? If it was so easy, then why didn\u2019t Chandramukhi come to reality in the 90s? And gosh, what a horrible screenplay it has. The same flying people, mindless action, B-grade expression, C-grade comedy, D-grade dubbing, and exhaustingly trashy content. Chandramukhi\u2019s backdrop with Vettaiyya and Sengottaiyan was nothing short of a Bhojpuri action flick. How can someone present ancient characters in such a manner? A vijaynagar\u2019s king and his warrior would start fighting for a girl without even asking who she is or what she wants. Kingdoms are switched as it\u2019s a TV channel that you can change with one click in one second. C2 is anything but logical writing. It\u2019s atrociously bad.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/212443307414269240\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/blog_bollywood\/article2048_shop.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding -bottom: 5px; padding-top: 5px;\" align=\"center\"><strong>Related Videos<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_77819\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vaJfrx2t5Z8?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_12048\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GPlbrbnM3g8?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<div><div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\"  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_77613\"  width=\"1140\" height=\"641\"  data-origwidth=\"1140\" data-origheight=\"641\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/HZvtbKErJfQ?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&cc_load_policy=0&cc_lang_pref=&iv_load_policy=1&loop=0&rel=1&fs=1&playsinline=0&autohide=2&theme=dark&color=red&controls=1&disablekb=0&\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"fullscreen; accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div>\n<p><a class=\"twitter-timeline\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KanganaTeam?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">Tweets by KanganaTeam<\/a> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chandramukhi 2 Review: P.
