According to Prime Video, movie lovers will have 30 days to start watching the film. Once you have started watching the film, you have 48 hours to finish it and it cannot be downloaded.

Ponniyin Selvan was released in theatres on September 30. Digital rights of Ponniyin Selvan I, also known as PS I, were sold to Amazon Prime Video in September at an undisclosed amount.

The latest Chiyaan Vikram movie collected close to Rs 500 crore at the global box office, according to trade analyst Manobala Vijayabalan. PS I is a part of the two-movie franchise mounted at a massive budget of around Rs 500 crore. The second part of PS I will likely arrive in the summer of 2023.

Ponniyin Selvan I focuses on the early years of Raja Raja Chola I, also known as Arulmozhivarman, and a coup planned by the Pandyas to overthrow the Cholas. The Mani Ratnam directorial is based on the novel of the same name by Tamil litterateur Kalki Krishnamurthy.
