Ponniyin Selvan’s Nandini is no different. And, she is often amidst situations that are thrown at her and are as extraordinary as her beauty. Nandini is seen in multiple hues.

It is based on quasi-historical events that took place at the end of Sundara Chola’s reign, when a war of succession broke out between two factions of the court.

The emperor, Sundara Chozhar, has two sons namely Aditha Karikalan (played by Vikram) and Arulmozhi Varman aka Ponniyin Selvan (played by Jayam Ravi). They both want to expand the Chola.

‘Ponniyin Selvan’ readers think Nandini’s father can be Sundara Chola or Veerapandiyan. However, some have confirmed that Nandini is the daughter of Veerapandiyan, who is murdered by Aditha Karikalan.
