New Delhi: The third song from Mani Ratnam's magnum opus film Ponniyin Selvan 2 (PS-2) is out. The song titled 'Shivoham', revolves around Madhurantakan aka Uttama Cholan (played by Rahman). 
 
Featuring a powerful and intense chant, the narrative showcases Madhurantakan, played by actor Rahman, vying for the Chola throne and forms alliances with the Kalamugars headed by a fierce leader played by Makarand Deshpande. 
 
The song carries historical and cultural significance, showcasing India's rich cultural heritage. The duration of the song is just 1.26 minutes. 

Shivoham is composed, produced and arranged by A.R.Rahman and is based on Nirvana Shatakam by Adi Shankara. It is sung by renowned Singers Sathyaprakash, Dr. Narayanan, Sreekanth Hariharan, Nivas, Aravind Srinivas, Shenbagaraj, T.S. Ayyappan.

Subaskaran's Lyca Productions presents PS-2. Jointly Produced by Madras Talkies and Lyca Productions, Directed by Mani Ratnam, and Music Composed by A.R. Rahman. 

The second song of the film 'Veera Raja Veera’ was also released recently. A.R. Rahman has composed the track, picturised on Karthi, Trisha and Shobita Dhulipala against the backdrop of warships sailing across the high seas. It is based on a traditional Shiva Stuti in Raag Adaana of the Dagarvani tradition of Dhrupad. 
 
The Hindi lyrics for the song have been penned by Gulzar, who has earlier worked with Rahman in many hit projects.
