The much-anticipated movie “Chandramukhi 2” has raised excitement among fans as the makers and cast recently shared the first look poster. Helmed by P Vasu, the film, now renamed X, features Raghava Lawrence in the role of King Vettaiyan, a character previously portrayed by veteran actor Rajinikanth in the 2005 film “Chandramukhi.” Adding to the star power, Kangana Ranaut also stars in this sequel.
In the captivating poster shared on Twitter by Lyca Productions (now X), Raghava Lawrence’s Vettaiyan is seen descending the staircase of his palace. Exuding an evil grin, he dons a regal look with rich green and maroon ethnic attire adorned with numerous necklaces, epitomizing the iconic character from Tamil cinema.

“Chandramukhi 2” is set to release on Ganesh Chaturthi this year in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada languages. It serves as the sequel to the blockbuster Tamil horror comedy “Chandramukhi,” which featured Rajinikanth and Jyothika in lead roles.
The chemistry between Rajinikanth and Jyothika, along with Rajinikanth’s portrayal of the character, contributed to the film’s cult following. “Chandramukhi” itself is believed to be a remake of the Kannada hit “Apthamitra,” which was originally inspired by the Malayalam classic “Manichithrathazhu.”
In “Chandramukhi 2,” Kangana Ranaut will take on the role of a dancer in the king’s court, renowned for her beauty and dance skills. Raghava Lawrence will play the lead role opposite Kangana in the film, adding to the anticipation among fans. The film’s music, composed by Oscar-winning composer MM Keeravani, is another aspect that promises to elevate the cinematic experience.
