The Cholas were misrepresented; ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ legal tangle
‘Ponniyin Selvan’, directed by Mani Ratnam, is a much awaited film by South Indian cinema lovers. The film is based on the famous historical novel by the legendary writer Kalki. The teaser of the film which was released a few days ago was well received. ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ is in trouble after the release of the teaser. The lawyer has sent a notice to Mani Ratnam and actor Vikram, accusing them of misrepresenting the Chola kings.
The petition was filed by a lawyer named Selvam. Aditya Karikalan, the Chola king, did not wear tilakakuri on his forehead. But this character, played by Vikram, is a Tilak man. Selvam said in the petition that such additions would give the people a false impression of the Chola kings.
He also demands that a special screening be held before the theatrical release to see if the film has distorted history. But neither the director nor Vikram came to the scene with an explanation in the notice. The first part of ‘Ponniyin Selva’ will be released on 30th September 2022.
