Ilayathalapathy
Vijay"s
upcoming
film
Kaaval
Kaadhal
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
Kaaval
Kaadhal
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.
