Who is oomai rani

Who is the Oomai Arasi or Oomai Rani and what is her link with the Cholas? The last visual from PS- 1is that of the Oomai Arasi swimming in the sea, possibly in search of Arunmozhi who drowned following a battle with the Pandyas and a shipwreck. Earlier in the film, Arunmozhi reveals that she had saved him when he was a young boy and had fallen into the Ponni river. Why does Nandini hate Aditha Karikalan and the Chola clan so much? Nandini was adopted by a priest’s family (which is why Vaishnavite spy Azhwarkadiyan says she’s his foster sister) and brought up in the Chola palace. This is where she met Aditha Karikalan, Kundavai and Arulmozhi Varman. When Karikalan and Nandini grew close, the Chola family sent Nandini away.

• • • • Before Ponniyin Selvan 2, a look at the who's who of the Chola kingdom Before Ponniyin Selvan 2, a look at the who’s who of the Chola kingdom Many characters were introduced in a short span in Ponniyin Selvan 1, which made the film a bit of an information overload for many. So, here's a list of characters inhabiting the Chola kingdom which will keep you prepared for the second part. Both Karthi and Vikram, two of the many leading stars of Mani Ratnam’s two-part Ponniyin Selvan film, recently admitted that the first part of the franchise was hard to follow for people in the North as there were too many characters introduced in a short span of time. Vikram said that it was difficult for him to remember the characters as well, and so he could relate to the problems of non-Tamil speakers. In a way, it is true that there was an information overload for people who are not aware of the work of Kalki Krishnamurthy. Compressing a five-part novel that spans about 2000 pages into two films would of course lead to a dense screenplay. Though Mani Ratnam and Sreekar Prasad had tried their best to simplify the film at the cost of making it choppy, things seem to have not been lucid for many. Hence, before the release of PS 2 this Friday, we thought of fixing that problem by listing out the characters of Ponniyin Selvan and providing a brief intro about them. Here it goes: Jayam Ravi as Arulmozhi Varman Vikram as Aditya Karikalan. Unlike his younger brother, Karikalan is impulsive...

Ponniyin Selvan is a historical fiction written by Kalki Krishnamurthy. I didn’t realize why it was a craze back then until I read the novel myself and the audiobooks which I also listen to. With 5 volumes, Ponniyin Selvan is an unputdownable read with twists and turns in every chapter. The story is set around the 10th-century Chola dynasty of South India. The novel has strong female characters who have unique characteristics. Here are some you can watch for in the movie as well! Nandini Nandini is the female protagonist of Ponniyin Selvan, played by Aishwarya Rai in the movie. She is a strong character in the story and is a stunning, brilliant woman. She is the wife of Periya Pazhuvettariyar and is referred to as ‘Ilaya Rani’ in the story. She is well recognised for her humour and charm. Nandini is a complicated person and is portrayed as a woman with vile intentions and layers, which is a mystery. She plays a significant role in influencing the events in the story. The conversation between Nandini and Vanthiyathevan was an interesting read/ watch in Ponniyin Selvan. Kundavai Kundavai, played by Trisha, is Arulmozhi Varman’s (Jayam Ravi) sister. Arulmozhi is the protagonist of PS. Kundavai is the daughter of Sundara Chola. Kundavai is referred to as ‘Ilayapiratti’ in PS. She is a majestic, wise and popular woman across other kingdoms as well. Kundavai plays an important role in protecting the family and plays a mentor to Arulmozhi Varman. Kundavai, despite being a woman o...
