Wanted to do Chandramukhi spin-off with Rajinikanth: Murugadoss

Director A.R Murugadoss met the press ahead of Darbar's release and revealed that he initially had plans of making a spin-off based on Rajnikanth’s 2005 release, Chandramukhi. The Tamil horror-comedy movie was directed by P.

The filmmaker added that practical difficulties made him shelve the idea of that spin-off, and come up with Darbar's script instead. The director also realised the technical difficulties that could come up while getting the rights of the film from Sivaji Productions and P Vasu. Hence, the Ghajini director then decided to shelve the film and started working on Rajinikanth starrer Darbar.
