The film is an epic action film that is set with a periodic narrative. Mani Ratnam directed the film. PS1 is also stylized as Ponniyin Selvan 1. It is the first part of the film whose story has been inspired by the novel of the same name written by Kalki Krishnamurthy. Ponniyin Selvan was set up with a budget of 500 crore rupees.
Later, the film was decided to be divided into two parts. This means that the funds will also be split. Filming started almost three years ago in Thailand. Some shots also took place in Chennai, India. Later, the crew decided to move to Puducherry. With the rise of South Indian Films, or Tollywood as we call it, PS1 has become one of the most enthusiastic projects of 2022, and fans are curiously looking forward to the same.
As for the cast of the upcoming film, we will see actor Vikram John Victor reprising the role of Aditya Karikalan. Aditya is the crown prince of Sundara Chola. He also serves as a commander of Norther troops for the dynasty and his father’s eldest son. Aishwarya Rai Bachhan will also grace the film with her presence.

He is the youngest child of Sundara Chola and a brother to Aditya Karikalan.
As per the synopsis of the book, the story will start with Vandiyathevan. He is a brave man and has the message of Crown Prince Aditya of the Chola Empire for the King and the Princess. The story is set around Vandiyathevan and his travels in the Chola region. Along with that, we see the focus shift back and forth to Arulmozhivarman, who is traveling in Sri Lanka.
