Recently, the makers released the Hindi version of the first song 'Ruaa Ruaa'. Penned by Gulzar, the song is sung by Shilpa Rao.

Talking about the song, Shilpa said, "Firstly it's an honour to sing for AR Rahman Sir and Mani Ratnam Sir. Mani Sir is one of the people that we look upto and grew up watching his movies done and now to work with him is an absolute honour. The star-cast of the movie is amazing and this love song is set in a very symphony arrangement which is beautiful. I think I have never sung something like this and it's very new for me. Rahman Sir really made a very beautiful flowy song and it is a very difficult song to sing but he encouraged me as always. Gulzar Sahab has written the lyrics and again such legends coming together, I think it's an absolute honour to be a part of this song."Trisha Krishnan Karthik Sivakumar and Jayam Ravi are also a part of the film. The film is all set to release on April 28, 2023.

'Ponniyin Selvan-Part 1' was a cinematic adaptation of author Kalki Krishnamurthy's Tamil novel of the same name which was released in the form of a series during the 1950s. It marks the third collaboration of Aishwarya with south actor Vikram after their critically acclaimed film 'Raavan' in 2010.
