To me, that is Chandramukhi. The film is going to be a beautiful yet challenging experience. I`m very excited to be working again with Kangana on this project, her sheer strength as an actor lies in the ability to lose herself to the character she is playing. Can`t wait to see what amalgamates in Chandramukhi 2."
