Vikram Vedha director Pushkar on clash with Ponniyin Selvan 1: ‘You can’t beat that…’

September 30 will see the clash between two films at the box office, Vikram Vedha and Ponniyin Selvan 1.

Pushkar and Gayatri, directors of Vikram Vedha, are not looking at the clash as a box-office battle. At a press conference, Pushkar said, “Ponniyin Selvan is a classic text, a tale of intrigue set during the Chola Empire. You can’t beat that. It’s a six-volume book that I read back in the day. That text has been an inspiration for every writer coming out of Chennai. We do our part and they have done theirs. Let’s hope people go and watch both movies. I think Friday-Saturday or Saturday-Sunday. I’ll be going and watching that movie for sure.”
