With a powerhouse cast including actors Trisha Krishnan (Kundavai), Aishwarya Rai Bachchan (Nandini) and Jayam Ravi (Arulmozhi Varman), this Mani Ratnam directed masterpiece has received almost universal acclaim from critics within India and overseas alike.
Now, after just nine days at the box office, Ponniyin Selvan has already managed to collect over 350 million rupees from worldwide ticket sales. Even before it had been released for a full week, Ponniyin Selvan had garnered up 308.59 million rupees – an astronomical feat that still amazes audiences even weeks later. In its second week of release, the film only increased in popularity with viewers buying tickets day in and day out; especially on Days 8 and 9 when they collected another 15.47 million rupees and 26.72 million rupees respectively – bringing the total collections so far to well over 356 million rupees within such a short amount of time!
