  • Summary

  • With special guest and friend Thanmye Lagudu we come together to crown a new king. Mani Ratnam completes his magnum opus with Ponniyin Selvan: Part II and we're back in the theatre again for more palace intrigue, romantic entanglements, and some of that signature Ratnam flair. Can Ratnam one-up himself with part two? We discuss PS2's visual glow-up, the challenges of adapting a literary classic, and bicker about who put in a better performance: Vikram or Aishwarya Rai Bachchan?

    Once again we are asking you to join the Church of Ratnam in our Discord server⁠. Keep up with Deep Cut on ⁠Instagram⁠, ⁠Twitter⁠, ⁠Facebook⁠, and ⁠Letterboxd⁠.

    Follow Thanmye on ⁠Letterboxd⁠ and ⁠Twitter⁠. Read his essay on PS2 here.
