Team Ponniyin Selvan is promoting the movie vigorously leaving no stones unturned. As a promotional strategy, the celebrities in the movie are giving interviews to many media and news platforms. In a recent interview, Trisha revealed that she and Aishwarya Rai got scoldings from Mani Rathnam and she also went on to reveal the reason.

Trisha shared her experience of working with Aishwarya and heaped praises on her co-star. She called Aishwarya ‘beautiful’ and revealed that the movie required them to stay arch-rival like their respective characters, however, the two actresses got along with each other pretty well. And therefore, there were times when the veteran filmmaker Mani Ratnam would scold them too.

“I fortunately got to meet her and interact with her on the day one of my shoot. She is beautiful inside and out, I don’t even need to say that. The thing is, this was challenging because we are not supposed to like each other too much in this film, but we got along pretty famously on set. There were times when Mani sir would come and say, ‘listen, you guys are taking too much, stop talking, I can’t have this camaraderie for my scene’,” she said.

“She is so warm and one of the most hardworking actors I have worked with. She spoke in chaste Tamil and how it has to be spoken. She will get up at 2 am and get ready with us. I am very honoured that I could share a screen space with her,” Trisha added.

Trisha is playing the role of Kundhavai, the Chola Princes and Aishwarya is playing dual roles as Nandhini and also her mother. The film which is made in two parts also has Vikram, Jayam Ravi, Karthi, and Sobhita Dhulipala among others.
