Mumbai, Feb. 15 -- The thought of adapting Kalki Krishnamurthy's historic novel, Ponniyin Selvan, had crossed director Mani Ratnam's mind long back. In fact, he wanted to make a film on this fiction way back in 1994. However, it was not until a few years back that the thought could materialise. It was in December 2019 that theshoot of the film had begun in Thailand. While the Thailand leg has wrappedup, we have gotten more details of the film.

According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Sobhita Dhulipala has been roped in to play an important part in the film. The actress would play a princess who would be the master of Kuchipudi and Bharatnatyam. View this post on Instagram
