About this listen

Whirlwinds, the exciting second part of Kalki R Krishnamurthy's historic magnum opus Ponniyin Selvan, our hero Vallavarayan Vandhiyathevan's adventures continue as he rides into marshy quagmires, befriends a mysterious girl, becomes the object of intense suspicion by the wily Pazhuvettarayars—and meets the hero of his dreams. Meanwhile, Kundhavai Piratti, princess of the Chozha empire is thrown into confusion and outrage, while the beautiful but poisonous Nandhini Devi weaves more deceitful webs to ensnare her enemies. She will stop at nothing to bring about the downfall of the Chozhas ... but will the scions of that royal clan escape in time? Listen on to find out as the epic continues.

Absolutely amazing

First of all the story is just majestic. Narration wonderful. Translate perfection. This truly is an epic. Narrative doesn't fall slack anytime but just keeps getting better and better. So many wonderful characters beautifully written. Only thing is it is old school writing so description of the environment or a women is done elaborately with colorful words. It's interesting but kind of dragging. Highly recommended for all.

Riveting

First of all, my homage to Pavithra Srinivasan on an outstanding job. The translation is so well done that it feels like it was originally written in English. My second congratulations to Amit Bhargav on the superb rendition of this magnum opus. Absolutely riveting!
