#PonniyanSelvan1 is now on Prime.
Reading this spoiler-free thread could make you appreciate the film better!

What is the central conflict in Ponniyin Selvan? Is it interesting? What is the time period?

All of these are established in the 4th chapter itself, so gear up!
At its core- the story theme is the same as Mahabharatha, Baahubali & Game of thrones, if you will.

One king is retiring. Who is going to become the next king?

The fight is for the Chola throne. The period is 968 AD according to Kalki.

Also, according to history!
A quick history lesson:
Parantaka-1 has 3 sons - the elder son died early in a war.
The middle son Gandaraditya became the next king. His son Madhurantaka was 1 year old when he dies.
So, Gandaraditya asks his younger brother Arinjaya to succeed him.

Fate played a game here!
