Jyothika’s character
in Chandramukhi suffered from Multiple Personality
Disorder otherwise known as Dissociative Identity
Disorder. Ganga was a sweet and docile Tamilian
wife whereas Chandramukhi was a Telugu girl
who was also an avenging fury and both personalities
fought for mastery over the same person threatening
her life itself. The condition was dramatized
in this film and though Ganga’s cure
was brought about by the Psychiatrist’s
(Rajini) skill and made for enjoyable viewing
it lacked scientific credibility.
