August 16, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Ilayathalapathy Vijay’s upcoming film Kaval Kadhal has been rechristened as Kaavalan as Vijay felt that the title is more apt for the film’s plot. Soon after the film started rolling, Vijay insisted that his producers acquire yesteryear MGR’s film title Kavalkaran. But the producers of that MGR’s film insisted Vijay and his producers come up with their own title as they did not wish to give up their original title. Later the film was tentatively titled as Kaval Kadhal and now as the film is progressing towards the final schedule, the producers have finalized it as Kaavalan.
The film is about a peculiar youngster Arjun (Vijay), who adores the most powerful people and wants to be their bodyguard. Somehow, he manages to be the escort of a leading industrialist (Raj Kiran), his wife (Roja) and daughter Meera (Asin). The industrialist wants Arjun to accompany Meera to her college as a student. What moves on as a hilarious entertainer turns into a serious drama during the second half, with an unexpected twist during the climax, which is sure to offer a big shock to audiences.
The film is directed by Siddique, who made the original version of Bodyguard and has a musical score by Vidhyasagar. Ekambaram handles cinematography.
