About Ponniyin Selvan 2
The film is based on the title novel by novelist Kalki. The early years of the Chola prince Arunmozhi Varman, who would go on to become the famed ruler Rajaraja I, are dramatised in the first portion of the movie. Numerous Tamil filmmakers have looked into making a movie based on the novel “Ponniyin Selvan” ever since it was published in 1955. However, due to lack of funds, it was never realised. Even Mani Ratnam tried unsuccessfully to adapt the book in the late 1980s and the early 2010s. Mani Ratnam restarted the project in January 2019, referring to it as his ideal project. The second installment, which debuted in theatres on April 28, followed the first part’s release in September 2022. PS-2’s soundtrack was composed by Oscar-winning musician AR Rahman.
