CHENNAI: The wait is finally over. The trailer of Mani Ratnam’s ‘Ponniyin Selvan 2’ is out and it has left the audience intrigued.
‘Ponniyin Selvan-Part 1’ was a cinematic adaptation of author Kalki Krishnamurthy’s Tamil novel of the same name which was released in the form of a series during the 1950s. The film stars Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Chiyaan Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Karthi, Jayam Ravi, Trisha, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Lal, and Sobhita Dhulipal, among others.
On Wednesday, the makers unveiled the trailer at a special event in Chennai. The trailer of the sequel teases viewers with the grand scale of the film.
The second part will take off from where it ended in the first part, where Ponniyin Selvan was facing his death as Queen Nandini (Aishwarya) jumps into the sea to save him.
Aishwarya definitely stole the attention with her presence in the trailer. She yearns to avenge the death of her father.
In a scene, she is heard saying, “We will destroy the Cholas.”
