PS-2 trailer is out and the Mani Ratnam magnum opus seems to be back with a bang!

The PS-2 trailer has been released and so the saga continues with more twists and turns and a lot of exhilarating action adventures and of course Nandini's revenge!

Mani Ratnam's PS-1 took people by storm when it came out last year so it's no wonder that people were eagerly waiting for this epic saga's sequel. When the PS-2 trailer dropped last night it didn't even take minutes for it to go viral. In Ponniyin Selvan-1, we were left at a rather crucial point, where Arulmozhi Varman (Jayam Ravi) and Vallavaraiyan Vanthiyathevan (Karthi) battle to the death as Aishwarya Rai's double role jumps into the sea to save them. This left us with a brain-teaser about who she actually is and where she fits into all the larger schemes of events.

The trailer is over three minutes long and it starts where we left off in PS-1. After hearing the news of Ponniyin Selvan's apparent death by drowning, there's an announcement to crown the new prince. Meanwhile, Karikalan (Vikram) keeps fighting battles because he has been offered to rule the other half of the Chola kingdom. And while this chaos in the transfer of power and fighting is ongoing, we see that Arulmozhi Varman has actually survived and is alive but he's hiding in secret.

While Vallavaraiyan Vanthiyathevan is still the most trusted person of the Cholas, he's seen again going from here to there. And as Kundavai (Trisha) deep dives into the mystery of the old lady, Oomai Rani, who saved Arulmozhi's life, seems like it will open the drawers of many secrets and answer the million-dollar question from PS-1. As the division and end of the Chola dynasty is being plotted and fought, Nandini(Aishwarya Rai), wrought with revenge and wishing to see the befall of the dynasty, finally faces Karikalan. As she draws her sword with trembling hands, Karikalan’s face only has a longing expression.

This magnum opus saga still has many chapters to be revealed. And the trailer totally lies in with the expectation and raises the bar of anticipation with all the secrecy, politics, longing romance, and of course, thrilling action. Under the vision of Mani Ratnam, a musical by A R Rahman, Ponniyin Selvan 2 is all set to release in cinemas everywhere on April 28, 2023 with the stellar star cast from the first one including Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Vikram, Jayam Ravi, Karthi, Trisha, and many more.

Based on Kalki's Ponniyin Selvan, a classic literature beloved in the south is considered to be India's Game of Thrones.
