A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

A storyline that is the extension of Chandramukhi has the same formula but dulls in comparison to the first movie.Venkatesh was fascinating to watch. He was given enough opportunity to showcase his talent, which without a doubt was amazing. His range of emotions was versatile, and of his characters had their own feel. Anushka came in the second half and she was amazing. Her dancing was full of grace and despite her small screen time, her character was etched well. Avinash was good as a Acharya. Shraddha Das & Richa Gangopadhyay both acted well. Their characters were given enough screen time to develop and help the story progress.Kamalini Mukherjee's character was okay. She neither added nor took away from the movie. Unfortunately she was not given enough scope to fully develop her role in the film. Poonam Kaur and Sujitha were not necessary for the film. They had only a small part to play and were not necessary for the film.All the other characters were okay. The comedy scenes with Brahmanandam were not really funny, even though Venkatesh was good at delivering his dialogues. The songs and background score were adequate. The cinematography was nice but the screenplay was okay. The build up to the climax was okay, but the actual climax was so-so. The positive aspects of the film were the story line, Venkatesh, Anushka and Avinash. The rest of the cast could not measure up to the original cast of Chandramukhi.
