As
per
Kalki's
Ponniyin
Selvan
Novel,
Aditha
Karikalan
was
a
crown
prince
and
a
brave
warrior.
He
defeated
the
Pandyas
on
the
Sevur
battlefield,
beheading
their
king
Veerapandian.
To
avenge
their
king's
death,
Pandiyan
assassins
infiltrated
the
Chola
Kingdom,
vowing
to
destroy
the
Chola
dynasty.
Ravi
Dasan,
Soman
Sambavan,
Devaralan
and
Varagunan
are
the
most
notorious
Pandiyan
assassins.
The
first
sneak
peek
video
from
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
is
out
now
and
it
portrays
the
militant
nature
of
the
Pandyas.
After
watching
this
sneak
peek
video,
one
couldn't
stop
imagining
the
level
of
celebration
for
each
scene
on
the
1st
day
and
1st
show
with
this
tremendous
background
music
by
AR
Rahman.
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
is
the
pride
of
India
and
nobody
expected
such
an
authentic
film
from
the
legendary
director
Mani
Ratnam.
A
sure
shot
blockbuster
is
on
the
way.
It
is
so
evident
from
the
video
that
actor
Kishore
brilliantly
performed
the
role
of
Ravi
Dasan.
But
his
Tamil
fluency
is
not
so
good.
The
team
might
have
gone
for
another
dubbing
artist
for
such
an
important
character
in
the
film.
And
the
VFX
work
of
the
camphor
fire
in
the
hands
of
Pandyas
is
quite
disappointing.
Apart
from
these
minute
flaws,
this
scene
is
going
to
be
even
better
in
the
theatres,
because
here
it
is
heavily
edited
so
as
to
not
reveal
too
much.
On
the
other
hand,
this
itself
is
a
big
spoiler
for
such
a
Magnum
Opus
movie.
Despite
the
vengeance,
the
Pandyas
never
said
they
will
kill
Kundavai.
Their
respect
for
women
and
children
is
just
amazing.
It
seems,
portions
about
Pandyas
are
going
to
be
more
terrific
than
the
ones
about
Cholas.
Sadly,
because
of
Aayirathil
Oruvan
and
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
movies,
Cholas
were
most
known
but
Pandyas
were
underrated.
Hope
some
top
directors
will
make
a
movie
for
Pandyas
in
the
future.
Let's
wait
till
September
30
to
witness
the
war
between
the
great
Cholas
and
the
mighty
Pandyas.
