PS-1 Review: Moviegoers React To Mani Ratnam's Epic Period Action Drama Film

Chennai, September 30 - Maverick filmmaker Mani Ratnam's highly-anticipated epic period action film Ponniyin Selvan: I has been released in theaters today. Mounted on a big budget and scale, the movie is based on Kalki Krishnamurthy's 1955 novel of the same name. ## Produced by Madras Talkies and Lyca Productions, "PS-1" tells the story of the early life of Arulmozhivarman, who would become the great Chola emperor Rajaraja I (947–1014). The film stars an ensemble cast of Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Jayam Ravi, Karthi, Trisha, Aishwarya Lekshmi, and Sobhita Dhulipala among others. ## The movie has been receiving mostly positive responses from critics and the general audience. While the film is being praised for Mani Ratnam's direction and keeping the story true to the Novel along with solid performances by the primary cast and solid BGM by AR Rehman, it is getting criticism for lacking wow moments. ## Have a look at some of the reactions to the movie by movergeros - ## Damn! He's really done it. #ManiRatnam's #PonniyinSelvan1 is a spectacular adaptation that superbly captures the intrigue, thrills and page-turning quality of #Kalki's books. The start is shaky, but the entire second half is the master showing us all that he's still the boss.— Suganth (@msuganth) September 30, 2022 ## #PonniyinSelvan1 - a decent watch with good making, dop, bgm & songs.. slow narration.. no wow factors..!! fights could have been better..Performance wise all are good.. comparatively better 2nd half.. tail end is good..Not a great one, but not boring too..

Trisha is captivating with her screen presence. Mani Ratnam chose a story that had good potential but his narration is tedious at parts and should’ve focused more on the screenplay.

Ponniyin Selvan - Part 1 Opening Day Box Office Prediction

Chennai, September 29 - Filmmaker Mani Ratnam returns to the direction after 4 years with the magnum opus Ponniyin Selvan. The first part of this epic period action film is scheduled to release on September 30 in multiple languages, and needless to say, there is a huge curiosity among the audience to witness the cinematic adaptation of Kalki Krishnamurthy's legendary 1955 novel of the same name. ## "Ponniyin Selvan - Part 1" is one of the biggest films ever from Tamil cinema, in terms of budget and scale. Produced by Madras Talkies, and Lyca Productions, the film has reportedly been made on a budget of approx. 500 crores for both parts (the second part will release after 6-9 months of PS1). ## The advance booking of the movie has been excellent so far with over 12 crores for all languages, including approx. 10.50 crores in Tamil alone. Among the recent Tamil films, the advance sales are currently the 4th highest after "Beast", "Valimai", and "Vikram", but is expected to finish above "Vikram" by the time the first show begins. ## "PS-1" is looking to take one of the biggest openings ever in Tamil Nadu. Going by the advance booking trend, it is expected to start over 25 crores in the home state but the number could reach 30 crores if the talks are positive which is very much expected. At the all-India level, the minimum opening of 40 crores gross is something the makers will be hoping for. ## Tamil movies have always performed strongly in the international markets, especially in the countries like Singapore, UAE, and USA. "PS-1" is already heading towards the second biggest premiere for a Tamil movie in the USA. The advance booking for the premieres is nearly $1 million and it could finish at around $1.3 million. Comparing it with the recent top Tamil movies, "PS1" is likely to score approx. 20-25 crores overseas on an opening day. ## The film stars an ensemble cast of Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Jayam Ravi, Karthi, Trisha, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Sobhita Dhulipala, Prabhu, R. Sarathkumar, Vikram Prabhu, Jayaram, Prakash Raj, Rahman, and R. Parthiban. The music is composed by A. R. Rahman, with cinematography handled by Ravi Varman, editing done by A. Sreekar Prasad, and production design by Thota Tharani. The film tells the story of the early days of Arulmozhivarman, who later became the renowned Chola emperor Rajaraja Chola I (947 CE – 1014 CE).## Stay tuned...

Vikram Vedha Opening Day Box Office Prediction

Mumbai, September 29 - Bollywood is on an edge of the seat again, this time to know the box office fate of Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan's Vikram Vedha, which is releasing on September 30. Hrithik was last seen on the big screen in War in 2019 and became the biggest Bollywood opener with Rs. 51.60 crores.## The scene has completely changed for the cinema industry, especially for Bollywood which has been struggling to get big openings in the post-pandemic era. It will be foolish to think Bollywood movies will open to record-breaking numbers like the pre-pandemic era unless the movie has really generated massive hype. ## Directed by Pushkar–Gayathri, "Vikram Vedha", despite the presence of star power, will heavily depend on the audience's word of mouth. The advance booking of the film is nowhere close to that of "War", which has ruled out its possibility of 30 crores opening. ## It is not all doom and gloom for the "Vikram Vedha" in advance sales as it is very much similar to the likes of "Samrat Prithviraj", "Shamshera", and "JugJugg Jeeyo", among a few others, and this indicates a decent to good opening for this action thriller. However, "Vikram Vedha" has something that these aforementioned films lacked, and that is a massive commercial appeal. ## "Vikram Vedha" has been receiving rave reviews from critics and its effect of it has been seen in the trend of advance sales which has picked over the last 24 hours. Going by the advance booking trend, the movie is looking to open around 12-13 crores net. Since the film promises to be a mass entertainer, the single screens are expected to perform much better than the previous films, and looking at all these things, the opening of around 15-17 crores is very much on the cards.## The opening of 15+ crores of the film will largely depend on the audience's word of mouth. Most Bollywood films have failed to impress audiences lately despite the positive critics' reviews, so it will be interesting to see how moviegoers are going to take this film. However, one thing which will give immense confidence to the makers is that the reviews from the critics are unanimously positive, which wasn't the case with the previous films. ## "Vikram Vedha" is getting a global release by Reliance Entertainment in over 100 countries and according to reports, it will be released on approximately 4000 screens in India. It is produced by YNOT Studios, Friday Filmworks, T-Series Films, Reliance Entertainment, and Jio Studios, and also stars Radhika Apte, Rohit Saraf, Yogita Bihani, and Sharib Hashmi in prominent roles. ## Stay tuned...

Thanu, "Naane Varuvean" has been one of the most anticipated Tamil movies of the year, and going by the critics and audience's reactions, the movie has lived up to the expectations. The genre of the movie has been kept tight lips but it is believed to be a psychological-horror action thriller film. ## It stars Dhanush and Selvaraghan in lead roles.
