As a movie, it was good n entertaining. Good acting too. I would like to know if the facts about the Chola empire as depicted in the movie is true or fiction. Being a Tamilian, I was always proud of the Chola empire n its heritage. Therefore, I was very unhappy to see what had become of the Chola King as shown in the movie. Selva Raghavan is no doubt a great director but he is not a Tamilian. So is there any possibility that the facts were not true and the Tamil Emperor was purposely shown in a very negative way.
