Las revisiones de PS-1 del norte destacan la reticencia a aceptar las diferencias culturales

Ya sea que se reduzca al hábito de ser alimentado con cuchara o al desinterés por una cultura que no es la propia, las reseñas críticas de ‘Ponniyin Selvan’ del norte de Vindhyas han sido en su mayoría condescendientes e ignorantes. Si creciste en Tamil Nadu, lo más probable es que al menos hayas oído hablar de la épica novela de ficción histórica de Kalki. Ponniyin Selvan, si no léelo. Siendo…

In the beginning of PS2 when young Aditha goes to war, Veera Raja Veera song starts playing. I mean the start of the song -- the Kaaneero part. And years later when he's dead and he is brought back to Tanjai, the same Kaaneero part of the song is playing.

That part of the song signifying both young Aditha first going to war vs Aditha being free from his internal guilt war.

I'm deceased thank you ARR OOF.

Rewatching again to get the touch of this unexplored love between ArunMozhi and Vaanathi...

A few clips along with this BGM take me to the world of Ponniyin Selvan and his love.

Added my favourite clips to get a glimpse of their eyes speaking and the small smile both give each other makes it worth it...

Editing this video made me dream about what is to be loved like that... and wanted to share it with all the VanMozhi lovers...

Sol- Song analysis

(The first of many collabs by @thegleamingmoon and myself)

Song name : Sol

Composer : AR Rahman

Movie : Ponniyin Selvan - 1 

The captivating female characters of PS have always managed to delight our hearts. One of the points to highlight in the novel as well as the movie has been the endearing bond of friendship between the Chozha princess Kundavai and the Kodumbalur princess Vaanathi, which has been beautiful portrayed in the song 'Sol',a lilting melody from the movie PS-1. 

The song starts with the princesses sweetly singing and dancing in a swan shaped boat which moves merrily letting them enjoy the gentle embrace of nature. In a happy mood,these princesses sing a song,teasing each other in the names of their future lovers (who are Vanthiyadevan and Arulmozhi respectively) but what's surprising is how they predict it aptly. 

Lyrics : 

Kadhodu sol,kadhodu sol,

Yaarendru sol,

Yaar endru sol.

Tell me in whispers,tell me in whispers,

Tell (me) who is he,tell who is he

Perazhagan ah sol,

Kodharmugan ah sol,

Is he the handsomest of them all? 

Is he tall like the highest peaks? 

(Here,the former is referred to Arulmozhi Varmar since 'Perazhagan' is a title given to Raja Raja Chozhan' while Kodharmugan can be referred to Vanthiyadevan.)

Maaveerana sol,

Vaaijaalana sol

Is he the bravest of them all?

Does he have his way with words?

(Here,'Maaveeran' is most definitely Arulmozhi while 'Vaaijalan' can be none other than our Vanthiyadevan for him getting away with this talent of his is no hidden fact)

Oodathae solladi

Oor varthai sol

Oh dear don't blush away,

Tell (me) atleast a word (about him)

Kaavalan ah sol

En yevalan ah sol

Poraali ah sol

Illae ododi ah sol

Is he a guardian? 

Or is he (my) messenger? 

Is he a fighter,

(Or) is he the one who runs away?

[ Here,the former is most definitely Arulmozhi for he describes himself to be a 'Kaavalan' just a short while later in the movie, while the latter is Vanthiyadevan for being a messenger is his prominent role in most parts of the book as well as the movie ] 

Keechu kural ah sol

Kaviarasu ah sol

Ippodhae sol

Adi ingaeye sol

Does he have a screechy/chirpy voice?

Is he the king of poets?

Tell me now oh dear,

Tell me right here.

[ ‘Keechu kural’ means a screechy voice but can also mean chirpy which is Vanthiyadevan in both the cases for both, his sometimes loud and sometimes humorous behaviour while ‘Kaviarasu' is definitely Raja Raja Chozhan for his love for poetry and for his qualities being the centre of the world of poets as well. ] 

Mayaiya sol

Maayana sol

Is he an illusion? 

Or is he a trickster?

[ 'Maayai' or the one who can weave illusions can be Vanthiyadevan while 'Maayan' is most definitely Arulmozhi Varmar for he is too good to be true, especially for Vaanathi. ] 

Kaadhodu Sol,kaadhodu sol

Yaarendru sol,

Yaar endru sol

Tell me in whispers,tell me in whispers,

Tell (me) who is he,tell who is he?

listening to chinnanjiru nilave 24/7 isn't enough, i want them to be imprinted in my soul

[madwoman14]

nothing just thinking about how a ponniyan selvan movie was not just mani ratnam’s dream but also the dream of so many that came before him and how kollywood has finally put the story on screen after 70 years…

[dumdaradumdaradum]

If i was to name one word that elevates ps songs, it has to be - sakhi

Ratchasa Maamaney from Ponniyin Selvan: 1 (Tamil, 2022)

[eenadu-varthalu]

Happy Letterboxd Sunday! (Sree’s recent watchlist edition):

[tamlindudley]

The thing I miss most about the Ponniyin Selvan release times is the press meets and publicity. That was some real shit and I loved every bit of it, it was like mini award functions everytime because there were so many cast members and it was just so fun and the special guests and hype and just. Idk I love when the cinema industry gives the family vibes just being together and having fun.

Thuyil - Kundavai & Vanthiyadevan Oneshot

(Preview)

'Have you noticed how our Ilavarasi is becoming more beautiful day by day' Said one woman

‘Yes I have noticed, but what is the use of beauty if one remains barren’ Venba said to another woman.

‘What are you talking Madhi? You know if any royals heard you say that, they will have your head’ Said Sandhya who is currently collecting flowers for the evening.

‘Why would they? I am not saying any false information, I am just pointing out the fact right?’ Madhi said and looked at Venba.

‘She is our Ilavarai and we should make sure she is happy’ Venba said calmly and shook her head at her friend and helping hand.

‘But I am worried about our Ilavarasi, As she got married way before her brother and our Ilavarasar Ponniyin Selvar, but she does not yet birthed any children nor impregnated successfully’ Madhis words made Venba think, it is true whatever her friend said and Chola Desam is yet to receive jewel from their beloved Ilavarasi.

The people of Chola desam went ecstatic when Ponniyin Selvar announced the new baby Prince who is named Rajendra Cholan born 6 moons before. A healthy baby boy was birthed by Kodambalur Princess Vaanathi. But it only made people question why Ilavarai Kundavai didn’t yet get pregnant.

Many accused Ilavarai's marriage to Commander Vallavaran Vanthiyadevan is just for political agenda and the princess is cursed to have children that's why for name sake she married but still resides in Thanjai rather than to take the Magadai kingdom. But many praised the princess for the bold move and thanked that she chose the Chola kingdom always.

As the two women vent out their thoughts it’s been heard by the one whose eyes never shed tears for many matters are now filled with salty tears. Ilavarasi of Chola desam Kundhavai Pirattiyar

When you realize the SHEER BRILLIANCE of Mani Ratnam, A.R. Rahman and Ilango Krishnan as you READ the Ponniyin Selvan book- I CANNOT BEGIN TO TELL JUST HOW BEAUTIFULLY THEY HAVE DONE IT.
