The Malayalam film Body guard which had Dhilip and Nayanthara in the lead roles was directed by Siddique. This film is being remade in Tamil. Vijay and Asin are in the lead roles. Raj Kiran is donning an important role. Siddique is also directing the Tamil version.
They had planned to title the film as Kavalkaran which was the title of the yesteryear hit film of MGR. Kavalkaran is the film produced by Sathya Movies which had MGR and Jayalalitha in the lead roles in the year 1967. Sathya Movies have now objected to the use the title for Vijay film. Sathya Movies have written letter to the Producers Council in this regard.
In the letter it has been stated that,” There is news that the film in Vijay is acting is to be titled Kavalkaran. We have not given the rights to anyone. Hence it should not be permitted to use the title.”
Tamil Nadu Producers Council has also written to the producer of Vijay’s film. In the letter it has been stated,” While using the old title, the permission has to be sought from the concerned producer and also get a No Objection certificate. So in the absence of these, there is a rule in the Council that the title should not be used. Hence a fresh title should be used.”
Now the title of the film has been changed to Kaval Kadhal. (KT)
