Filmmaker-actor Sundar C’s next film, Mookuthi Amman 2, is releasing in theatres on November 6, ahead of Diwali. The film, which is a sequel to RJ Balaji’s 2020 hit Mookuthi Amman, will see Nayanthara reprise her role as the titular Goddess. Ahead of the film’s release, the actor was spotted visiting the Kalikambal Kamadeswarar Temple in Chennai to seek blessings and distribute sarees.
After the sequel’s promotional material was released, many claimed that the film heavily used AI. The film stars Suriya , Nazriya Nazim and Naslen in lead roles. Sundar, however, slammed these rumours and said, “There are almost 3000 shots that require CGI in this film. Out of them, only 15 shots used AI. Mookuthi Amman 2 will clash with Jithu Madhavan’s Scene in theatres.
Mookuthi Amman 2 is directed and written by Sunday, with Venkat Raghavan penning the dialogues. Mookuthi Amman, which was released in 2020, was a fantasy-comedy written and directed by Balaji. The film’s theatrical release was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was released directly on JioHotstar (then Disney+ Hotstar).
Other videos show devotees visiting the temple, also sitting behind her and taking part in the puja. The temple is decorated with fresh flowers and leaves for the ceremony. Ishari K Ganesh, Khushbu Sundar, Vignesh Shivan, and Nayanthara produced the film under the banners of Vels Film International, Avni Cinemax, and Rowdy Pictures. Urvashi, Yogi Babu, Abhinaya, Ramachandra Raju (Garuda Ram), Singampuli, Sneha, and Meena also star in it While Regena Cassandrra and Duniya Vijay play the antagonists. The sequel will also see Nayanthara play a police officer, in addition to the Goddess. It also starred him in the lead role as a news anchor who visits their family deity to seek her blessings for good luck. Things turn around when she begins to honour his wishes. The film received positive reviews from audiences and critics alike.
