Nandini is a tamasic queen with a deep complaint against the Chola dynasty. She manipulates people, plotting fuel, and orchestrates political plans to bring down the empire. Her character is inspired by revenge, mystery and emotional upheaval, which is one of the most layered performances of Aishwarya.
While Aishwarya has played strong, morally unclear roles in films like Ravana, Khaike, and Dho 2, Ponyin Selvan stands out as her most prominent villain depiction.
