simply the return of the successful Muni persona. The first packed entertainment, spooks, fun, and dancing into an almost delicious capsule, and the sequel intends to do the same. So, is it more of the previous or something that transcends the original's precedent?

Kanchana is about a spirit and its need for vengeance; we all knew that, didn't we? There are no surprises there. Raghava Lawrence reprises his role as the perpetually terrified young man from Muni; we know what to expect here as well. The novelty of watching a hero become a coward wears off quickly since we've already seen it in Muni. However, Kanchana's similarities to Muni end there. The film's other elements are entirely unique. Most terrifying films have a flashback that explains why the spirit remains in the world of people after death. This memory elicits sympathy or indignation from the listener and gives validity to the spirit.

As is customary in horror films, the logical validity of the basic plot or the legitimacy of the ghost's or spirit's activities through others should not be discussed but simply experienced. And Kanchana expects the same level of submission and acceptance from its audience. The first criterion of a horror film is that it must be able to frighten the viewers; otherwise, it will be a high-and-dry ride. Kanchana excels at this guideline; it delivers shivers and thrills wherever it goes. One of those instances is the 'experimental' scene in which Kovai Sarala and Devadar Shinie  try to confirm the presence of a spirit in their midst. The good news about the entire situation is that the terror

Horror films necessitate incredibly believable performances from the entire cast; everyone must wear fully afraid and befuddled expressions in order for the audience to feel the excitement. Everyone has done an excellent job in that regard. Lawrence should be able to handle it after going through the Muni process, one would assume. However, the climactic scenes in which he is possessed may have been physically hard. Kovai Sarala replicates her mother's act and pulls it off with her wealth of expertise. Devadarshini's portrayal is also more than convincing. The ladies, along with Lakshmi Rai, have practically had to carry Raghava Lawrence throughout the film, which, while still a result of eerie scenarios, does elicit a smile. Sriman does not possess

But Sarath Kumar is the surprise package. Who would have guessed that a performer known for his physical prowess and action would pull off the part of a transgender so convincingly? Why did he decide to take on this role? Well, the only guess is that it's one of the transgender characters who doesn't fit the long-standing cinematic caricature of them as people who clap their hands funny and demand money from everyone they meet. They are depicted in the movie as having a great degree of self-respect and values, and it also makes clear that being transgender is a congenital issue that cannot be helped. For presenting this viewpoint, the director merits a hearty round of applause. 

Thaman's music is disappointing, as the BGM falls short of the eerie situations' potential. The graphics could have been improved, but budgetary constraints hinder the experience. Kanchana is a rollercoaster filled with frights and chills, with real-life scares that impact the audience.
