Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan I is slated to hit the theatres on September 30. The ensemble cast of Vikram, Aishwarya Rai, Karthi, Trisha, Jayam Ravi, and others have impressed the audiences, who are excited to see their favourite characters come alive on screen. When asked about this perfect casting, Trisha, who plays Kundavai, goes on to credit Mani Ratnam.
“The Ponniyin Selvan casting looks 100% perfect because Mani sir takes you (the actor) as a blank slate and he makes you the character. I don’t think I am the only perfect Kundavai, he made it as such. He has done so much homework and he brings that character out. Because initially many people doubted whether I would suit the character. But at the end of the day, when we see the posters and films, we can see that he made us live the character,” says Trisha.
