Mani Ratnam had once rejected Trisha's request of wanting to play Nandini in 바카라Ponniyin Selvan바카라 films.
The trailer of upcoming epic period action film 'Ponniyin Selvan-2', sequel to the hugely successful 'Ponniyin Selvan-1', was unveiled last month. The 'Ponniyin Selvan' films, which are based on Kalki Krishnamurthy's modern Tamil classic of the same name, are helmed by Mani Ratnam.
'Ponniyin Selvan-2', like the first film, stars Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Chiyaan Vikram, Karthi, Trisha Krishnan and Sobhita Dhulipala in leading roles.
While Aishwarya stars as Nandini in the film, Trisha recently opened up about the time when she had questioned the filmmaker if she can play Nandini. To which, Mani Ratnam rejected and said, 바카라only Aishwarya can do바카라.
In an interaction with News 18, Trisha said, 바카라I love Nandini, personally as well. I would have loved to play her. In fact I even told Mani (Ratnam) sir, on day one when I went to his office, for which he said 바카라no, that바카라s the first thing we already signed and it바카라s done, only Aishwarya can do that,바카라 and I was totally okay with it.바카라
Trisha had also mentioned recently how the filmmaker told her and Aishwarya Rai to not be good friends off-camera as their roles of Princess Kundavai and Queen Nandini are arch rivals in the story.
The second part of Mani Ratnam바카라s historical fiction 바카라Ponniyin Selvan 2바카라 was released in cinemas on April 28, 2023. The action drama promises to leave the audience glued to their seats.
