The
new
promo
of
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
is
just
astonishing
with
four
massive
unseen
footages
from
the
film.
The
very
first
shot
of
the
promo
with
all
the
three
lead
actors-
Chiyaan
Vikram,
Karthi
and
Jayam
Ravi
riding
their
horses
together
creates
a
huge
expectation
about
the
film.
This
scene
will
definitely
be
on
the
status
and
stories
of
many
netizens
after
the
release.
Fans
already
started
celebrating
this
as
the
best
promotional
video
so
far
from
the
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
team.
But
to
everyone's
surprise,
there
is
no
mention
in
the
novel
about
these
three
characters
Aditya
Karikalan,
Vanthiyathevan
and
Arulmozhi
Varman
riding
together.
It
could
be
the
imagination
of
the
director
Mani
Ratnam
rather
than
the
writer
Kalki.
People
who
read
the
novel
started
debates
over
this.
The
aggressive
facial
reaction
of
Aditya
Karikalan
and
the
extraordinary
practice
session
of
Vanthiyathevan
with
his
Silambam
were
just
mind-blowing.
Finally,
the
low
angle
slow-paced
movement
shot
in
which
Arulmozhi
Varman
is
looking
deep
at
the
ocean
from
the
top
of
his
ship
with
a
lot
of
soldiers
in
the
background
gives
instant
goosebumps.
The
ship
VFX
is
the
best
of
all
recent
Indian
films.
And
this
could
be
easily
the
best
work
in
cinematographer
Ravi
Varman's
filmography.
Above
all,
the
top-notch
background
score
composed
by
AR
Rahman
completely
lifts
up
the
promo
video.
The
team
is
still
working
too
hard
in
promoting
the
film
and
the
advance
booking
is
creating
magical
numbers
every
day.
OTT
rights
were
sold
for
a
whopping
price
of
Rs
125
Crore.
In
such
a
demanding
situation,
the
strategy
of
releasing
such
a
promo
video
with
completely
fresh
footages
from
the
film
is
a
pure
masterstroke.
This
film
bankrolled
by
Lyca
Productions
will
hit
the
screens
on
September
30,
2022.
We
need
to
wait
for
just
3
more
days
to
witness
director
Mani
Ratnam's
Magnum
Opus
Ponniyin
Selvan
1.
Let's
make
it
a
great
success!
