Why This Matters
Part II delivers what Part I promised — emotional payoff at epic scale. Aishwarya Rai's Nandini, revealed fully here, is one of the most complex female characters Mani Ratnam has ever created: a woman who weaponised beauty to carry out justice across a generation. A fitting close to a career-spanning dream.
