Mani
Ratnam’s
magnum
opus,
the
epic
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
is
all
set
to
take
over
the
theatres
all
over
the
country
on
September
30.
On
the
same
note,
Dhanush-starrer
Naane
Varuvean,
directed
by
his
brother
Selvaraghavan
is
also
heading
for
a
grand
theatrical
release
on
September
29.
Both
films
are
highly
awaited
by
movie
lovers
and
fans
of
the
respective
directors
and
actors,
especially
in
the
southern
part
of
the
country.
It
is
an
undeniable
fact
that
both
Mani
Ratnam
and
Dhanush
have
established
a
very
strong
hold
in
the
Telugu
market
through
their
films.
Although
Dhanush
had
only
gained
popularity
for
his
dubbed
films,
Mani
Ratnam
has
made
films
directly
in
Tollywood
as
well.
Both
films
have
an
interesting
set-up,
backdrop,
and
strong
stories.
More
than
anything,
film
buffs
and
fans
are
waiting
with
bated
breath
for
the
films
to
finally
arrive.
Given
the
fact
that
there
are
no
other
Telugu
or
regional
releases
in
the
last
week
of
September,
it
is
expected
that
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
and
Naane
Varuvean,
which
are
dubbed
into
Telugu
as
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
and
Nene
Vasthunna,
will
set
the
cash
registers
ringing
at
the
box
office.
If
the
content
of
these
films
is
strong,
they
are
both
expected
to
make
history.
Ponniyin
Selvan
1
is
the
story
of
the
great
Rajaraja
Chola
1,
according
to
the
super
hit
novel
written
by
Kalki
Krishnamurthy
under
the
same
name.
The
movie
is
divided
into
two
parts.
Mani
Ratnam
once
stated
that
making
this
film
is
one
of
his
lifetime
achievements.
With
an
impeccable
star
cast,
who
are
talented
powerhouses,
the
fans
are
left
asking
for
more
after
the
makers
released
the
film’s
trailer.
Naane
Varuvaen
stars
Dhanush
in
a
dual
role
along
with
Indhuja,
Elli
AvrRam,
Selvaraghavan,
Prabhu,
Yogi
Babu,
Shelly
Kishore,
Saravana
Subbiah,
and
Aajeedh
Khalique
among
others.
The
film’s
story
is
penned
by
Dhanush
while
Selvaraghavan
directed
it.
The
movie
was
made
under
the
banner
V
Creations
by
Kalaipuli
S
Thanu.
Om
Prakash
cranked
the
camera
for
Nene
Vasthunna,
which
has
music
by
Yuvan
Shankar
Raja.
Bhuvan
Srinivasan
has
edited
