Chandramukhi.... 

The movie chandramukhi is far different n better from Rajani’s Previous venture Baba.. good to watch. In this film, Rajini has attempted to break his image and tried to do a regular stuff,He has applied some logic in the film but for few instances. But those instances were much bearable. May be the film would have been much better if he could have avoided such instances for example... while having a fight with a dump guy the iron rod will rotate it self vertically in the air for almost 30-40 secs until Rajini could adjust his hair....... making the words super star appear in the sky through kites etc…Reading others mind( tooo irrational ) ..

Comedy by vadivelu and Rajini is good to some extend... P.Vasu’s has loosed the string of the story in the end by bringing in a priest to take control chandramukhi. Though bringing priest by Nasser & co seems to be logical, the final dialogues of Rajini to the priest that he should take care of chandramukhi is highly irrational after he himself saying that it is the split personality characteristics of ganga (joytika) from her child hood. It wud have been better if he has not involved the priest in the last scene to tackle chandramukhi... though the priest did nothing but to make her sit in the middle of the kolam and to answer his question such as will she be calmed down after killing the vettai raja...that would have done by any one instead of bringing priest into scene…

Few instances, which were to be serious in the story made the audience laugh... the make of Rajini into vettai raja was horrible and the unbearable sound by him "laka laka laka laka laka laka laka laka laka laka laka laka" was height of stupidity to show the arrogance in the character of vettai raja.
There is a huge supporting cast of about a dozen people who have nothing to do except be in the frame. And why were Akhilandeswari Amma (Sheela) and her body guard a part of the cast? All the characters Nassar, Vijaykumar, Avinash are used to deliver dialogues praising the greatness and goodness of Saravanan’s character that is glorified to the hilt!


Nayanthara is as beauty her name is... she dint had much presence in the movie except two songs and few instances... the director want to show her that she too acted in the film... so he gave some stammering effect when she delivered dialogues in the scenes in which she was depicted in high temper or highly frightened....

Joytika has done well in fact till last quarter hour of the film no would appreciate her presence in the film at all but in the last quarter of the film.... Her facial expressions are too dramatic and sometimes she goes overboard by rolling her eye balls whenever she had the split personality of chandramukhi.Everybody would carry only her character and vadivelus comedy in mind after the movie . Rajani has not much to do in movie..if any other hero acted in his place it would be same..Vadivelu comedy is mosty with his voice modulation annoying at instances…

Prabhu.... though the character was important in the story, he dint had much to deliver... the opportunity to exhibit his talent was nil

All the characters Nassar, Vijaykumar, Avinash are used to deliver dialogues praising the greatness and goodness of Saravanan’s character that is glorified to the hilt!
Both being veterans.... again had nil space to exhibit their talents.
Unlike the normal rumors which came about the make up of Rajini.... it was not too bad... the amount of make up to show him young was exact...it was nothing more nothing less....

Music was good. The song “RAA RAA n Athimtom ….was good”..The song shot at turkey is melodious..that can even be shot in India ..The location can even be found in India itself.. Also the songs were inserted in the film haphazardly without any proper link.... the song thevuda..thevuda... conveys the importance of washer man, farmer, sewage cleaners.... etc..But why was it told at that point of the film...no one knows.... the song was good...but lost its importance, as there was no link in the film to the song...

The height of absurdity in characterization of Rajini and joytika, the mistake done by director could be very much seen in the way he depicted his interests.... the hero would wish to come in bullock cart which depicts the rural life.... would always wear a jean jacket...thigh tight jean.... cooling glass with beautiful Nike.,sports shoe... or highly embroider...pyjama and jibba...
When Joytika is affected by spilt personality..she starts to convey dialogs in Telugu ...the point to be noted..at instances it is shown that jyotika did’nt rem what all happens when she get into the skin of Chandramukhi..but again in movie it is said she attempts to kill prabhu..
How cum she rem senthil (prabhu) as her husband when she is affected by spilt personality..
Things which are difficult to digest are..Joytika classteacher remember’s her after so many years..She lifts the barma Taek old traditional cot by one hand ..which can only be lifted by min 4 to 6 persons..
The story is not clear..its bit confusing..director could’nt frame the story with spilt personality properly . He could tried in better in other way…

The movie will be a hit commercially. Would have brought a line of hope among his fans. Better he avoids love interests and duets at this age and do some mature characters such done by amitab. If films like batsha, annamalai were to be given 75% marks... we can award 25% to chandramukhi where I would rate 1% to baba. A cognizable improvement..
