CEO of the MX Player Karan Bedi said in a statement issued, “This tie-up is in line with MX Player’s philosophy of promising the best in original content, not only in Hindi but also in other regional languages like Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Bhojpuri, and Punjabi. We are proud to partner with Saundarya as she makes her foray into the digital world with Ponniyin Selvan; her vision to make differentiated and larger than life projects is extraordinary and we look forward to a fruitful partnership.
