On Day 1, PS2 registered a good number of 27.25 cr. In the second episode of the epic drama that tells the story of the Chola Dynasty, actors Vikram, Karthi, Jayam Ravi, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Trisha Krishnan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Sobhita Dhulipala, Prakash Raj, and Vikram Prabhu among others repeat their roles.

Ponniyin Selvan 2 Box Office Report

The movie has been released in more than 3200 screens. Fans’ expectations were raised by PS-2’s release, and social media evaluations show how much they are enjoying the movie. The serial drama was dubbed a blockbuster by many, and some even compared it to SS Rajamouli’s Bahubali 2.

PS 1 collected 90 crore nett over weekend in Tamil Nadu and second part has collected 76 crore nett over weekend. But still it’s a fair result for the film. There are only three films which have crossed 200 crore nett in Tamil Nadu (Enthiran, PS1, Vikram) and this can be fourth but still it has long way to go.

Ponniyin Selvan 2 Collects Decent Numbers On Day 5 Tuesday:

The Tamil film Ponniyin Selvan 2 held up well on Monday due to it being a holiday in most of the southern states for labour day including the main market of Tamil Nadu where the collections were pretty much similar to the first day. Film added 12 cr nett all India on day 5 and thus crossed 100 cr nett. It will find tough to beat P.S. 1 all India numbers.

The film has collected 62 crore nett in five days in Tamil Nadu. The top grossers in the state are the Pongal releases Thuniva and Varisu with 89 crore and 109 crore respectively so it should beat these two films. Ponniyin Selvan 1 is at 172 crore nett and is the all time record in the state and that is a tough task due to the weekend being less.

Following are the collections for the film:

Friday: 13.25 cr

About Ponniyin Selvan 2

The film is based on the title novel by novelist Kalki. The early years of the Chola prince Arunmozhi Varman, who would go on to become the famed ruler Rajaraja I, are dramatised in the first portion of the movie. Numerous Tamil filmmakers have looked into making a movie based on the novel “Ponniyin Selvan” ever since it was published in 1955. However, due to lack of funds, it was never realised. Even Mani Ratnam tried unsuccessfully to adapt the book in the late 1980s and the early 2010s. Mani Ratnam restarted the project in January 2019, referring to it as his ideal project. The second installment, which debuted in theatres on April 28, followed the first part’s release in September 2022. PS-2’s soundtrack was composed by Oscar-winning musician AR Rahman.
