The Chandramukhi 2 trailer showed a family moving into a mansion, where they are specifically warned to avoid the south block, known as Chandramukhi’s residence. Raghava Lawrence portrays King Vettaiyan Raja in the alternate reality that acts as the backdrop for the mansion’s story while Kangana plays a dancer in the king’s court who is renowned for her beauty and dance abilities.
