KollywoodMani Ratnam and team have adapted Kalki’s magnum opus to film, a dream project that has eluded filmmakers such as Mgr and Kamal Haasan. How have they fared?Courtesy: Twitter/ Lyca ProductionsThe much-awaited sequel to Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan: I was released on April 28, and we finally have a complete view into how Kalki’s literary magnum opus has been adapted to the theatrical film format. Making the film version of Ponniyin Selvan, a five-part novel that first ran as a weekly serial for almost four years in the Kalki magazine, has been a long-pending dream for Tamil cinema. So how has Mani Ratnam and team fared in doing the one thing that eluded filmmakers such as Mgr and Kamal Haasan? Ps-1 did exceptionally well at the box office and by all indications, Ps-2 too seems to be heading for a great theatrical run both domestically and overseas.

When last we saw the title character of Mani Ratnam’s epic “Ponniyin Selvan” saga, the real-life prince who would expand the Chola empire from South India all the way to the Ganges in the north was drowning as he crossed from Lanka to India. Instead of picking up at that cliffhanger, the action-packed second installment rewinds a few decades to focus on different characters, before circling back to reveal the fate of Jayam Ravi’s title character, also known as Arunmozhi Varman.
“Ponniyin Selvan: Part Two” starts by filling in the backstory of how Arunmozhi’s older brother, Crown Prince Aditha Karikalan (Vikram), fell for Nandini (Aishwariya Rai Bachchan), an orphaned girl living with a priest family at the local temple. The royal family disapproved of him marrying a girl whose antecedents weren’t known, and so she was chased off. The story then picks up to when reports...

KollywoodWhile many fans of Ponniyin Selvan have made their peace with the film adaptation, others are upset that some of the most important connections and twists in the novel were dropped.Lyca Productions*Major spoilers ahead Even as a seventy-year wait to see Ponniyin Selvan on screen has come to an end, Ps 2, the second part of Mani Ratnam’s adaptation of Kalki Krishnamurthy’s novel, has led to a lot of discussions on the creative liberties taken with it. Mani Ratnam co-wrote the two-part film with Elango Kumaravel and Jeyamohan, and as was only to be expected, the team has done away with several episodes and characters from the novel to condense the vast material into two films.

ReviewIf Kalki’s literary magnum opus belongs to Arunmozhi Varman, Mani Ratnam’s film belongs to Aditha Karikalan. And who can resist Vikram when he’s at the top of his game?Courtesy: Twitter/ Lyca ProductionsThe first part of Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan, co-written with Jeyamohan and Elango Kumaravel, began with Aditha Karikalan (Vikram) defeating the Rashtrakutas but refusing to behead their king. He circles the king on his horse, but when the moment arrives, his face clouds with a memory. He knocks off his headgear instead of his head. This is a battle-ready, aggressive prince but his rage is directed most at himself. The love he once harboured has twisted itself into hate. The first film ended with Arunmozhi Varman (Jayam Ravi) falling into the sea, but the second film doesn’t begin from there. Instead, it goes back to that love story once again. A young Karikalan...

And it’s not that the Tamil industry didn’t want to do it. From the time of Mg Ramachandran, superstars and directors have dreamed of turning Kalki’s vision into reality; to sit on a horse, as the cheeky Vandiyathevan, and revisit the Chola era, long gone but still alive in the memory of the people through the art and architecture that they’ve left behind.

The release of revered Indian filmmaker Mani Ratnam’s hugely anticipated epic adaptation of Kalki Krishnamurthy’s classic Tamil-language novel “Ponniyin Selvan” is the realization of his childhood dream.
