Nayanthara is receiving a grand welcome ahead of her return as the goddess Amman in Mookuthi Amman 2. A towering 60-foot cut-out of the actress has reportedly been installed at Vels Theatre in Chembarambakkam, near Chennai, drawing attention ahead of the film’s scheduled theatrical release on November 6.
The massive tribute has also caught the attention of Nayanthara’s co-star Regina Cassandra, who praised the achievement and described it as a remarkable milestone for Tamil cinema. The development has added to the buzz surrounding the fantasy-comedy sequel, which combines devotional themes with entertainment.
Regina Cassandra Reacts to Nayanthara’s 60-Foot Cut-Out
Regina Cassandra expressed her admiration for Nayanthara after learning about the giant cut-out installed ahead of Mookuthi Amman 2. In a social media post, Regina highlighted the scale of the tribute and its significance for the actress.
“This day is going down in history. I was told that Nayan is the first ever actress to have a cut out of this magnitude prior to a film release in Tamilnadu.. That’s a 60 feet feat indeed!” Regina wrote.
She also praised Nayanthara’s determination and success, adding, “Call it the will to succeed, call it manifestation, call it whatever you may. It’s admirable and I’m in awe.”
Regina’s comments have added another talking point to the film’s promotional campaign. Large cut-outs have long been associated with fan celebrations in South Indian cinema, particularly around major releases. A tribute of this reported scale for a female star has further drawn attention to Nayanthara’s popularity.
The claim that the installation is a first of its kind for a Tamil actress should, however, be independently verified before being treated as an established record.

Despite the attention surrounding the giant cut-out, the film’s teaser has also generated criticism on social media. Some viewers have questioned the quality of the visual effects, arguing that certain computer-generated scenes look artificial.
Others have compared the film’s promotional material with Sundar C’s earlier horror-comedy work, including the Aranmanai franchise. These reactions have prompted discussion about whether the sequel will offer a sufficiently fresh experience.
Such responses reflect opinions expressed by some viewers rather than a definitive assessment of the finished film. The theatrical release will give audiences a better opportunity to judge its visual effects, storytelling and overall execution.
