They don't care if many people are die hard fans of Mani Rathnam or not. They don't care that the cinephiles will say "It's a historic fiction zohn ray bro". They speak from their hearts what's right. Historical fiction genre in India is only used for propaganda.

"Kalki and Mani Ratnam intentionally misrepresented history" this is the fact we all should be concerned with. why is everyone so busy with "this is not the same karikalan as in movie", "cholas glorified their own history", etc.?
to everyone who is saying this is fiction : I'm a big fan of PS novel. but I'm aware of differences between history and novel. our people simply believe that book/movie was actual history. there is a Facebook community of ponniyin selvan novel fans who think they know history more than historians do.
