The second instalment of Mani Ratnam’s historical drama franchise, Ponniyin Selvan 2, is set to be released in theatres on April 28, 2023. As the first movie was a major hit in most corners, there were some regions where the movie did not perform as per expectations. Despite having a huge star cast, the movie failed to make a good collection at the box office collections in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana.
Adding to the story, a new report says that the highly anticipated PS 2 is having difficulty getting Telugu distributors. The first movie’s original Tamil version did a decent job in Tamil Nadu but could not perform well in the Hindi region or Telugu-speaking states. Read on to find out more about the sequel not getting any Telugu distributors.
According to a report by News 18, the first Ponniyin Selvan’s failure in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana was a disappointment. As the movie made over 400 crores at the worldwide box office, Mani Ratnam’s sequel struggling to get Telugu distributors comes as a shock. The report adds no Telegu distributors are ready to buy the rights of Ponniyin Selvan 2.
