AISHWARIYA RAI as Nandhini in Ponniyin Selvan: I பொன்னியின் செல்வன்: I (2022) dir. Mani Ratnam
I tried to provoke Ganga by talking about Nagavalli and questioning the authenticity of an anklet we had misplaced. She started responding violently to it. For the first time, I saw a glimpse of this... supernatural presence, shining in her eyes. She almost transformed into Nagavalli in that moment. That’s the illness. Just like we read in the newspapers about a 11-year-old Muslim girl behaving like a 71-year-old Brahmin. She talks like the Brahmin and recites Sanskrit verses. People might think that she is possessed. In Psychiatry, we call it split personality or dual personality or possession states, just like other mental disorders. In this case, Ganga believes that she is Nagavalli.
