Chennai, Sep 14 — The makers of director Sundar C's upcoming devotional thriller 'Mookuthi Amman 2', featuring actress Nayanthara in the lead, on Monday announced that their film would hit screens on November 6 for Deepavali this year.

They also released a gripping teaser of the film, much to the delight of fans and film buffs on the occasion.

Taking to its social media timelines, production house Vels Film International wrote, "Presenting the #RiseOfMahasakthi (Teaser) in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Kannada & Malayalam. Releasing on Nov 6th, 2026. A @sundarcoffl Mega Divine Entertainer. #MookuthiAmman2FromNov6 #MahasakthiFromNov6."

The teaser, titled Rise of Mahasakthi, begins with a rider entering a cave covered by a waterfall to warn his queen of impending danger. "Enemy soldiers are on their way here, after getting to know that the child is here," he announces.

The child, we learn, is the prince after whom the enemy troops are after. Unable to find a way to save the child from the impending danger, the queen prays to the presiding deity of Mookuthi Amman, asking her to save the child and gives her life as an offering to the deity.

Meanwhile, a woman's voice is heard saying, "I want it. Dead or alive." We also see a man who has the ability to burn others to ashes at work.

Soon, the story shifts to the present day and age with actress Oorvasi praying to the Goddess, urging her to save them. She expresses regret that they did not realise her significance at an earlier point in time and that they had understood her value only now. We then see the Goddess return to save the child.

The teaser gives the impression that that film will be an edge of the seat thriller and that story will have a portion of it taking place in two different time periods.

For the unaware, the makers of the film had announced on December 30 last year that the shooting for the film had bee completed.

Taking to its X timeline, Vels Film International, the production house that is producing the film, had shared a BTS video that featured clips of all the stars who had worked in the film and their brief opinion about the project.

The BTS clip ended with director of the film, Sundar C, confirming that shooting for the film had come to a close.

Sharing the BTS clip, Vels Film International wrote, " Capturing the magic and dedication behind the scenes of Sundar C’s #MookuthiAmman2. A #SundarC Mega Divine Entertainer."

In the BTS video dropped, actress Urvasi confirmed that the second part of the franchise would have no connection with the first part, which had gone on to emerge as a huge blockbuster. The actress also said that it felt like as the shooting had ended very quickly.

Director Sundar C, on the day of completing the shooting of the film, had said that over 2000 technicians had worked non stop on the film for over six months and that they were completing the film successfully. Several other actors too including Regina Cassandra, Kannada actor Duniya Vijay, Singam Puli, Yogi Babu were seen expressing their thoughts on the film. The BTS clip ended with a cake cutting ceremony that was held to mark the wrapping up of shooting of the film.

The film has triggered huge excitement among fans ever since it was first announced.

It may be recalled that the producer of the film, Ishari K Ganesh, had earlier disclosed that actress Nayanthara, who plays the titular role in the film, had been fasting for a month to play the role of the goddess in the film.

At a pooja function organised to mark the official launch of the film in March last year, producer Ishari K Ganesh had said, “I should tell about Nayanthara madam. She has been on a fast for almost a month now. She also fasted for a month before playing the character of Amman in Mookuthi Amman part 1 as well. She is excited about this character and the story."

Ishari Ganesh said that five years ago, when actor R J Balaji approached him to make the first part of the franchise 'Mookuthi Amman', he immediately agreed as 'Mookuthi Amman' was their family deity.

“When we were deciding on who should play the titular role of the Mookuthi Amman, the one and only choice was Nayanthara. We approached her and she readily agreed. The film met the expectations of the audience,” Ishari K Ganesh said.

“After that film, I was waiting for a film on Goddess Amman to come but nothing was made. I wanted a pan Indian film on Goddess Mookuthi Amman and therefore wondered why not make a second instalment of Mookuthi Amman. When I discussed this with my team, we arrived at the conclusion that the best person to direct this second part would be Sundar C, who is also hailed as the Frachise King,” producer Ishari K Ganesh had said.
