PONNIYIN SELVAN | PALUVETTARAYARGAL - Power everyone respected. Loyalty everyone questioned!

History remembers heroes and villains. Stories often reveal something more.

Story Night is a weekly gathering where literature and cinema meet conversation. Instead of presentations, every session is built around discussion, differing viewpoints and shared curiosity.

Set on our rooftop terrace beneath the open evening sky, the atmosphere is as much a part of the experience as the conversation itself.

This week, we take a closer look at the Pazhuvettarayargal through three lenses. How Kalki wrote them, how cinema portrayed them and how audiences have come to perceive them over the years.
