Ponniyin Selvan Part 1 | Aishwarya Lekshmi as Poonguzhali – Full Character Breakdown & Scenes | Mani Ratnam Epic Moments Special video on Aishwarya Lekshmi's iconic role as *Poonguzhali* in Ponniyin Selvan: I! Poonguzhali is the fierce, fearless boatwoman from Kodiyakarai – a strong, independent fisherwoman who loves the sea, rows boats across dangerous waters, helps Vandiyadevan (Karthi) in his secret mission, and has a secret admiration for Ponniyin Selvan (Arulmozhi Varman). In this Chola-era historical epic, she's not a royal but stands out with her physical strength, confidence, and unique personality. Aishwarya Lekshmi nails the role – her performance, natural beauty, fierce expressions, and graceful presence make Poonguzhali a fan favorite even with limited screen time. She brings the character's icon status from Kalki's novel to life perfectly! 🔥 Fans still talk about her courage, boat scenes, and how she stole hearts in Mani Ratnam's masterpiece. Aishwarya Lekshmi said she never expected this much love for Poonguzhali – it opened doors & made people revisit her other works. Must-watch for PS1 fans! *Movie Credits:* Directed by: Mani Ratnam Starring: Vikram, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan (Nandini), Karthi (Vandiyadevan), Trisha Krishnan (Kundavai), Jayam Ravi (Arulmozhi Varman / Ponniyin Selvan), Aishwarya Lekshmi as Poonguzhali, Sobhita Dhulipala (Vanathi), Prakash Raj, Prabhu, R.
