Kangana Ranaut has agreed to star in yet another entertainer, Chandramukhi. Chandramukhi 2 is the well-known follow-up to Chandramukhi. P. Vasu is in charge of directing it. Rajanikanth and Jyothika appeared in the prior edition.

Kangana will play Chandramukhi, a famous dancer at the King's court who was known for her beauty and dancing skills. Raghava Lawrence, a well-known actor and director, will be with Kangana, which is expected to be a big deal in the movie world. The sketch by renowned costume designer and multiple National Award winner Neeta Lulla makes things more interesting.

Neeta said when she was contacted that she wanted to give each Adaa a character who embodies grace. Her appearance, hairstyle, stance, and gait all show and convey the spirit of dance, which is what Chandramukhi means to her. The experience of seeing the movie will be both lovely and difficult. The top designer is excited to work with Kangana again on this project. She is a great actress because she can lose herself in the character she is playing. Neeta can't wait to see how Chandramukhi 2 combines.

While a source said that in the first week of December, Kangana will begin the film's first schedule of shooting, the actor will take a brief break from Emergency, and Chandramukhi 2's second schedule will start in January after her directorial is finished.

Reports say that Lyca Films, which made the movie Ponniyin Selvan: Part 1 and is one of the biggest production companies, is behind Chandramukhi 2.

A source close to the actor also said that, after the huge success of Thalaivii, Kangana is eager to make her next Tamil movie and is looking forward to playing this very cinematic character.

Kangana will be in the movies Tejas and Emergency. In Tejas, she will play an air force pilot, and in Emergency, she will be Indira Gandhi, the former prime minister. Additionally, she has Noti Binodini in the pipeline.
