The Common Fiction mood is there in the film that mainly progresses the story in a very different and enfold way . The fiction itself lies on the title of the Film as Ponniyin Selvan son of Ponni ( River Ponni ) is saved by her from drowning and thereafter holds the Title.

Rivalry, War and Diplomacy are the stuff that surround the events. There are multiple action scenes. But the main motion is controlled by efficient diplomacy and conspiracy by the people of the royal family and their close ones.

The Screening is undoubtedly amazing. Whether it's the entries of the mainstream characters or the presentations of the songs and dance performance.

All the characters have their own shade and caliber to get the audience's attention. Each character is connected to each other in some way. And the net is spread in a very beautiful manner through all of them.

Very much progressive as a cinematic prologue in its own way.

Mani Sir literally insists the audience by his storytelling to think in a way like the dynasty about which the film is. PS I is mostly about knowing the characters and critical assumptions of the audiences.

Must Watch to Know a deep Rooted psychology and chronological suspense. Its a film greatly scripted down.

And and and Last But Not The Least A. R Rahman's music are just gob smacking.

Mani Ratnam delivers a masterpiece yet again. One would have been forgiven for being a sceptic considering the fact that Ponniyin Selvan is an all time classic of Indian Literature and could have forgiven the makers for not living up to the expectations. However, Mani Ratnam and crew delivers aplomb with PS1. Vikram, Karthi and the rest of the stellar cast did not disappoint a wee bit. The screenplay, direction and music holds its lofty standards throughout the movie. The numerous delays that the movie had before finally hitting the theaters now make sense as well as Mani Ratnam did not leave any stone unturned in making sure the audience were treated to a visual masterpiece.

Part 1 is a must watch and cant wait for Part 2.

Actually, this is a movie on its own league. Everything including screenplay, actors, performances, and music are top notch. I really enjoyed the movie.

The first half had great character introductions and some whistle worthy moments, and some great set of songs. We get to witness the (She- Cobra) Nandini and the charming vandhiyathevan. Vandhiyathevan's role really suits Karthi due to his accurate comicness. And Vikram's presence in the theatre really steals the show even though he does not have a plethora of scope, and the story is very beautifully told and Ravi Varman's Cinematography is the icing on the cake. The first have was very productive and classy. But all the greatness starts for the 2nd half which is just out of the world. The introduction of Jayam ravi is mass and Jayam Ravi does great justice to his role and is one of my favorite characters. The war sequences are very realistic and fresh, it is very real and very less cgi is used. Overall the final scene is the main ingredient of this undrestated dish. So the reason why i'm not giving this full is that, according to me there is always room for improvement...
