Vijay's Kaavalan due for December Release

Ilayathalapathy Vijay’s fans were curiously awaiting for the release of his 51st film Kaavalan for the occasion of Diwali. Now it looks like the release of Kaavalan may be postponed to December.

 The film is produced by C Ramesh Babu under the banner of Eka Veera Creations and is directed by Siddhique, who made the original version Bodyguard as well. The film was earlier titled Kaval Karan. It was later on changed as Kaaval Kadhal and finally it has been titled Kaavalan.

'Kaavalan' has Asin starring opposite Vijay in female lead role with famous actors Raj Kiran and Roja enacting her parent’s role. Vadivelu will take care of hilarious quotients (his role was performed by director Siddique himself in original version).

The film was shot in a period of 25 days at VIT College in Vellore amidst of 5000 students and the final schedule is being filmed at Kerala and European Countries. At first, Vijay had plans about completing this film and later kick-start his other project Velayudham. As the actor has signed couple of other films, which includes untitled sci-fi thriller with Vikram Kumar and Shankar’s remake of 3 Idiots, he has been simultaneously shooting for Kaavalan and Velayudham so as to commence the other projects by the beginning of 2011.

The unit is gearing up to release the film in December and if what we heard from closer sources is believed to be true, then producer-filmmaker Sakthi Chidambaram has acquired the rights of this film.
