Ponniyin Selvan Day 2 Box Office Worldwide Collection: Mani Ratnam's Film Continues To Dominate!

Ponniyin Selvan, one of the most awaited films of the year, directed by Mani Ratnam, hit the screens on September 30 on a large scale. The movie has been garnering mixed response from movie buffs and fans of the cast and crew. But, at the box office, the movie opened on an explosive note.

The film was stunning but lacked a powerful narration and grand visuals. For a film of periodic backdrop, visuals play the main role. The colour scheme of the movie was rather pale, and the only saving grace were the performances of the actors'. AR Rahman's background score and music were passable and have sounded old school, especially the background score.

The film's narration was a tad bit slow, and it quite took time to dive into the story. However, Tamilians feel that the magic maker Mani Ratnam has stayed true to the famous literary work by Kalki Krishnamurthy.

Take a look at the day-wise box office collection of Ponniyin Selvan here:

Day 1: Rs 36.5 Crore
Day 2: Rs 30 Crore
Total 2 Days Collection: Rs 66.50 Crore

The movie stars Vikram, Jayam Ravi, Karthi, Prakash Raj, Aishwarya Rai, Trisha, Sobhita Dhulipala, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Prabhu, Vikram Prabhu, Rahman, Jayaram, and Aishwarya Lekshmi among others in crucial roles.

AR Rahman composed the film's background score and tracks while Ravi Varman cranked the camera. A Sreekar Prasad worked as the film's editor, and Thota Tharani was the production designer.
