Synopsis
Ponniyin Selvan: Part II (2023) is Mani Ratnam's sweeping historical epic, and you can watch it online on iFILM. The year is 968 AD. Pandya assassins regroup with one goal — wipe the Chola dynasty off the map.
Cornered on every front, the Chola princes face the Pandyas, the Rashtrakutas and old allies who have switched sides. A rumour spreads by sea that the heir, Ponniyin Selvan, drowned. The powerful Pazhuvettarayar plots his betrayal. And Aditha Karikalan still carries the wound of his old love for the vengeful Nandini, played by Aishwarya Rai Bachchan — the thread that gives the whole film its tragic pulse. Vikram, Karthi, Trisha Krishnan and Ravi Mohan fill out the court.
This is the second half of a two-part adaptation of Kalki Krishnamurthy's beloved Tamil novel, one of the most-read works of 20th-century Indian fiction. The scale is rare even for big-budget Indian cinema: naval battles, palace conspiracies and three hours of intrigue all funnelling toward a single decisive choice. Made for anyone who likes costume epics where politics cuts as deep as the sword. Stream Ponniyin Selvan: Part II (2023) online on iFILM.
