The film, which is being directed by one of the titans of the indian film industry, Mani Ratnam, and stars Chiyaan Vikram, Jeyam Ravi, Karthik, aishwarya Rai, Trisha, aishwarya Lakshmi, and Jayaram, will be released in theatres seven months after the release of the film's first instalment, "Ponniyin Selvan-1," which was released in September. The movie's music is composed by Oscar-winning composer A.R. Rahman.
To reveal the release date for PS-2, a little video starring Jeyam Ravi, aishwarya Rai, Karthik, and vikram was made public. Produced by Mani Ratnam's madras Talkies and Alirajah Subaskaran's Lyca productions, "Ponniyin Selvan" made $500 million in worldwide box office receipts for its first act.

While chiranjeevi confirmed that Bhola shankar will release on april 14th, pooja Hegde's Kisika Bhai Kisika jaan also confirmed the release date on 21st April. With no space between the releases and dates are squeezed, we have to wait and see who emerge victorious.
