Damn! He's really done it. #ManiRatnam's #PonniyinSelvan1 is a spectacular adaptation that superbly captures the intrigue, thrills and page-turning quality of #Kalki's books. The start is shaky, but the entire second half is the master showing us all that he's still the boss.

#PS1 - Interval

செம விறுவிறுனு போகுது.. Good Story,Characterizations, Setting of Plot

And மணி Making, Craft ல மிரட்டி விட்ருக்காப்ல..Frames லாம் அவ்ளோ செமயா இருக்கு.. Especially The Idea To Not Have & Wide shots for Grandeur and The Usage of Handheld Shots were Terrific

#PonniyinSelvan wish they had continued with part 2…I can’t wait till next year..Mani Saar successfully took us to the Chola world with his story telling…As a fanboy of Mani was slightly disappointed but as a movie it worked really well..Visuals were terrific.overall #PS1

#PonniyinSelvan Review:#JayamRavi Shines in the role of #ArulmozhiVarman

His entry scene, dialogue delivery & the climax fight is a proof for it

The aura he contains is very effective & reflects well in the film #PonniyinSelvan1 #PonniyinSelvanReview #PS1 pic.twitter.com/mxUXHVyZob

#PonniyinSelvan (Tamil)

Writer Kalki’s epic novel in director Mani Rathnam’s big screen signature.
Slow, calm to enter the Cholas world & the internal politics to acquire the big throne.

Engaging & convincing with superb performances & presentation.

LOVELY, WELL DONE #PS1 pic.twitter.com/DHdvnWaHc9
