Baahubali fans have been comparing Mani Ratnam's magnum opus Ponniyin Selvan: I with the Prabhas starrer ever since the first teaser of the film was launched. Like Baahubali, Ponniyin Selvan: I too has grand visuals. As per the fans, the visual element will drive its box office collections. However, after the Day 1 collection of Ponniyin Selvan: I was shared by trade business experts on Saturday, Baahubali fans have been trolling the makers for its below-par performance at the ticket window.  

Ponniyin Selvan: I off to a decent start at the box office

For many, Baahubali vs Ponniyin Selvan: I is a Telgu vs Tamil film industry debate. Since the Day 1 collection of Ponniyin Selvan: I have paled in comparison with Prabhas' Baahubali, netizens saw the opportunity to share memes and funny reactions as they trolled Mani Ratnam and team Ponniyin Selvan: I. 

One social media user wrote, "Baahubali2  Day1- 217 Crores, PonniyanSelvan Day1 - 75 Crores, Don't ever do that compare with BB2 (sic)." Another Twitter user wrote, "Rather than giving a compelling product which appeals to every section of audience, Tamil people are more eager to prove themselves better than TFI. It's a tough fact to accept but it is what it is (sic)."
