It has been dubbed in Hindi under the title Tantra Mantra. PlotVinod (Pritviraj) is in love with Aswathy (Karthika Mathew) a member of the Lakshmipuram royal family, which has many dark secrets. When Aswathy's mother refuses to allow her to marry Vinod, she elopes and marries him. Just before the birth of their child, Vinod and Aswathy make up with the royal family consisting of two uncles, Pooradam Thirunal Valiya Koyi Thampuran (Jagathi Sreekumar) and Pooradam Thirunal cheriya Koyi Thampuran (Jagadeesh), and their wives. Later a child is born to them, but Aswathy dies mysteriously during the delivery. Her grandmother is bedridden by then. The baby is called Ammu (Taruni Sachdev) and is looked after by the members of the family, who start thinking that the little girl is possessed by an evil spirit. Vinod hires Indu(Meenakshi) to babysit Ammu. Later the family members understand that Indu is also possessed by an evil spirit. The Pooradam Thirunal uncles meet an exorcist, Valliyankattu Thirumeni, (Thilakan) to get a solution for their troubles. The exorcist gives them an enchanted plate to be buried in the original deserted Lakshmipuram palace, the root cause for all the problems. When they try to bury the enchanted plate, they are frightened by the ghosts & become insane. Dr. Sundarasen (Salim Kumar),a psychiatrist comes to the palace to treat them. Their brother, Mahendra Verma (Siddique) returns from Dubai upon hearing his brothers' illness. He falls for the beauty of Indu & try to seduce her only to realise that she is a ghost. He & his brothers, along with the Doctor, goes to Valliyankattu Thirumeni to learn the reason behind these mysterious happenings. In a flashback, it is revealed that in the days of Tippu sultan, Manaveda Varma, a Keralite king, had joined hands with the British to save his kingdom from falling into the hands of the Sultan. Chandrachoodan (Pritviraj) was a brave general of the King's army and Indu was his wife Indumathy Devi and Ammu, was their daughter. The British general agreed to save the kingdom on the condition that he wanted to sleep with Indumathy whom he considered as the most beautiful element of the kingdom. With the princess as an agent, Indumathy was summoned to the palace, only to be shocked at the betrayal. Out of rage, she tries to kill the British general by pulling the king's sword, but the king manages to snatch the sword and decapitates Indumathy. They decide to bury her body along with her daughter, who was alive, inside the palace itself. The king orders to kill Chandrachoodan as he returns from his quest, thereby putting everything to an end. As the child was killed on the day of her birthday, she returned as a vengeful spirit to take revenge on the king. Manaveda Varma, the princess, Chandrachoodan, Indumathy Devi & Ammu reincarnate in the current generation. First, Ashwathy was killed prior to her delivery as she was the princess in her previous birth who betrayed Indumathy Devi. In this birth, Mahendra Verma continuously used to get nightmares and it was prophesied that a child will be born in their family with "Karthika" as its star and that the child will be the cause of his death. And when the child is born, Mahendra Verma will experience a physical disability. As per the prophecy, a girl child was born with the same star to his sister, but he killed the child without the knowledge of the rest of the family members. He lost one side of his vision as a result of the child's birth. Now Ammu is also born with "Karthika" as a star but by minutes difference, the family mistook a wrong star. Due to of the birth of Ammu he lost his hearing ability on one side but did not realize its cause. Mahendra Verma sends his men to kill Ammu and Vinod but they escape. They arrange for a Pooja to exorcise Indumathy. The exorcist successfully manages to control the spirit of Indumathy, but faints after the pooja. Ammu reaches there & gets angry on seeing Mahendra Verma. In spite of others' efforts from saving him, she manages to kill Mahendra Verma & thus her soul finds peace. Now a normal Ammu, joins hands of Vinod & Indu & they live happily ever after. Cast

ReceptionDeccan Chronicle said, "The scene stealer is undoubtedly the Mumbai girl, young Taruni. Jayasurya’s guest appearance could well have been avoided. The less said the better about the rest of the cast in this film that is neither a horror thriller nor a comedy. Sadly, there is nothing in this film that will keep it from sinking".[1]Box officeThe film was commercial success.[2][3][4] References1. ^Vellinakshatram 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/malayalam-cinema-analysis-2004-news-malayalam-kkfvAKceaeasi.html|title=Malayalam cinema- Analysis 2004!|work=Sify|date=1 January 2005}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/entertainment/movies/tamil/boxoffice/fullstory.php?id=14950770|title=Will the Yakshi save Vinayan?|work=Sify|date=23 July 2010}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://m.rediff.com/movies/slide-show/slide-show-1-south-director-vinayan-is-back/20110519.htm|title=Raghuvinte Swantham Rasiya will release this Friday|work=Rediff.com|date=19 May 2011}} External links
