Earlier
in
2020,
Raghava
Lawrence
announced
Chandramukhi
2
after
consulting
with
Rajinikanth,
whom
he
considers
a
guru.
Owing
to
the
pandemic,
the
production
of
the
film
was
delayed
and
the
multitalented
actor
used
ample
time
to
finish
the
pre-production
of
the
film.
Lawrence,
who
is
not
only
known
for
his
dance
moves
and
successful
horror
comedy
films,
but
also
for
his
philanthropy.
He
came
together
for
the
first
time
with
director
P
Vasu,
who
helmed
Chandramukhi
with
Rajinikanth,
for
its
sequel.
The
actor
took
to
his
Twitter
account
and
shared
the
news
of
the
film's
commencement
by
sharing
a
picture
of
him
meeting
and
taking
blessings
of
his
guru.
The
elated
actor-cum-director
wrote,
"Hi
friends
and
fans,
Today
Chandramukhi
2
shooting
begins
in
Mysore
with
my
Thalaivar
and
guru's
@rajinikanth
blessings!
I
need
all
your
wishes!
🙏🏼🙏🏼
#Chandramukhi2,"
(sic).
Chandramukhi
2
will
be
directed
by
P
Vasu.
MM
Keeravani
is
roped
in
to
compose
music
for
the
film
and
RD
Rajasekhar
will
handle
the
camera.
Thota
Tharani
will
look
over
the
production
design.
Vadivelu,
whose
character
from
the
prequel
has
successfully
evoked
laughter,
will
be
part
of
the
sequel
as
well.
Although
Sun
Pictures
were
part
of
the
project
when
it
was
announced,
the
film
is
now
being
funded
by
Lyca
Productions.
Lyca
Productions
announced
the
film's
commencement
with

of
the

Chandramukhi,
which
was
released
in
the
year
2005
went
on
to
become
a
super
successful
film
and
ran
for
several
months
in
theatres.
At
that
time,
it
was
hyped
that
Rajinikanth
took
home
a
fee
of
Rs
40
crore
as
a
profit
share.
The
original
film
stars
Jyothika,
Prabhu
and
Nayanthara
in
the
lead
roles.
