Story copied from IDELEBRAIN. Here it goes..
Kailash (Prabhu) and Ganga (Jyothika) is happily married wealthy couple. Kailash buys an abandoned palatial mansion on the insistence of Ganga. Legend has it that this mansion is a haunted one. Eeswar (Rajnikant) is the foster brother of Kailash and also an excellent psychiatrist. He visits haunted house and studies it. He comes to know that a Rajah who used to live in the same place around 150 years back. He forcibly got a danseuse called Chandramukhi from Tamilnadu and made her dance in his court. When she involved herself in an affair with another dancer, Rajah killed Chandramukhi and her lover together. The ghost of Chandramukhi haunts this palatial mansion. The rest of the story is all about how Eeswar solves the problem of ghost and how he unites the warring families as well.
I am not at all impressed with the storyline. How can actor like Rajini be casted for this kind of a story at this time? This film was originally made in Malayalam as 'Mani chitra tazha' a decade back. The same movie was dubbed and released in Telugu as 'Gajjela Chappudu' during that time. P Vasu remade this film in Kannada as 'Apta Mitra', which is now simultaneously remade in Tamil and Telugu with the title 'Chandramukhi'. I guess it isn't a movie that is contemporary.
Latest on the movie is the incident that happened in Madurai. Noone confirmed though whether it is fanatism or something else. But, going by the past incidents, anyone could easily believe it to be fanatism.
