    Could understand why Karikalan became emotional looking at the falcon and dove statute and also his comments based on that.
    Good conversation between the grandpa and the grandson.

    Hi
    Nice to see the English version of Ponniyin Selvan. A great masterpiece in Tamil Literature by kalki. A great rendering to the readers who could not read Tamil.

    dear sis,
    Karikalan is an emotional character. I'd say an emotionally disturbed character. Everybody hated his short temper and temper trantrums. Nobody understood the strong undercurrent of love in his mind.
    We'll get to know more about this character in this part. thanks for coming in.

    Dear Sridhar,

    Nandini invites and Karikalan listens and comes all the way! The magic wand a beautiful woman can wave and possess is unbelievable! I am liking the fourth part, it seems to move forward at a more faster space. Want to move on to the next chapter!

    L, Kamla

    Dear Kamla,
    thanks. That's the power of a woman. Didn't Kunthavai hold Vandhiya Thevan's hand and that made him a kind of slave to her? Of course it's love at its softest form. Fourth and Fifth parts are the highlights of this epic novel. thanks for coming in,
    love,
    sridhar
