Ponniyin Selvan: Part I

The film concludes with the apparent drowning of Arunmozhi Varman, also known as Ponniyin Selvan, during a storm at sea while on a mission to rescue himself and Vanthiyathevan from those trying to kill him. As the ship wrecks and disappears into the ocean, the royal court receives news that the prince is presumed dead. This leaves the future of the Chola throne uncertain, heavily relying on the next phase of the story. An intriguing mystery surrounds the woman who appears to look like Nandhini, rescuing Arunmozhi and Vanthiyathevan from drowning at different points during the storm. Her identity is unclear, and her connection to Nandhini or the overall conspiracy remains unresolved, adding a layer of suspense and anticipation. The film ends with the question of who she is and whether Arunmozhi or Vanthiyathevan will survive to claim their rightful places, setting up expectations for the next installment. Mani Ratnam masterfully leaves audiences pondering the fate of the beloved prince and the true identity of the mysterious woman, making it a compelling cliffhanger that propels the story into the sequel.
