The above background score of 'Ponniyin Selvan 2' kept me haunting when I first saw in Tamil on April 28th. I was haunted enough and I decided to see 'Ponniyin Selvan 2' again. But I made a mistake. I saw it in Hindi this time. And alas this score is absent in Hindi dubbed version.
The beats and the voice are mesmerizing, I feel.
I want to stress two points from Kalki Krishnamurthy's 'Ponniyin Selvan'. They are
1. Arunmozhi Verman made a supreme sacrifice of his crown by handing it over to Madhuranthakan, his paternal uncle. Much like Sardar Patel gave up his claim of prime ministership in favor of Jawaharlal Nehru.
2. Hindu shaivite god-mother Oomai Rani shared her womanhood with two local shaivite kings Sundara Chola and Veerapandiyan. A question mark on Nehruvians?
And I also saw for the second time because I wanted to closely observe Chiyaan Vikram's acting. I agree with YouTube vloggers. Chiyaan Vikram has tremendous acting skills. His intensity was great in many occasions. Especially when he comes to know from Nambi that Arunmozhi Verman is alive. And also the intense scene with Nandini in Kadambur palace.
