Mani Ratnam's magnum opus was one of the most successful Indian movies of 2022. The epic historical adventure drama is based on legendary Tamil writer Kalki Krishnamurthy's 1995 novel.
Ponniyin Selvan: 1 showed the Chola Kingdom grappling with the threat of a coup and explored the life of prince Arulmozhi Varman. It ended with Arulmozhi Varman and Vandhiyathevan getting caught in a storm. The kingdom assumes that he is dead and the sequel is likely to deal with its repercussions.
