Mani Ratnam’s historical drama Ponniyin Selvan emerged as the biggest Tamil blockbuster of the year and crossed Rs 500 crore at the worldwide box office. The film, starring Karthi, Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Trisha and Jayam Ravi, chronicles the fictionalised battles within the Chola kingdom in the ninth century, and is based on Kalki’s works. In honour of its success, a party was held, which was attended by the stars from the film.

In photos that are doing the rounds on social media, filmmaker Radhakrishnan Parthiban poses with Rajinikanth for a selfie. He captioned his post, “At Ponniyin (Rs 500 crore) Selvan super success party, with son of success.” Rajinikanth, along with Kamal Haasan had shown immense support for PS-1 during the promotions of the film. At the audio launch prior to the release, Rajinikanth had spoken at length praising the work of Amarar Kalki and expressing his excitement to watch PS1.
