Kaavalan is an upcoming Tamil romantic comedy film written and directed by Siddique. Starring Vijay and Asin Thottumkal in lead roles, the film is the remake of the director's previous Malayalam film Bodyguard.

It was slated for release on the day of the Festival of Lights, which is November 5th for 2010, but continued production and the release of Endhiran, led to a delay until sometime in December to avoid yet another flop for Vijay.

Plot
As described by the New Indian Express writer, R Richard Mahesh,[7]
The film is about a youngster Arjun (Vijay), who adores the most powerful people and wants to be their bodyguard. Somehow, he manages to become the trusted aide of a leading industrialist (Raj Kiran), his wife (Roja) and his college-going daughter Meera (Asin).
The industrialist wants Arjun to accompany Meera to college. After lot of hilarious moments, the film begins to take its twists and turns and ends with an unexpected twist.
Production
Development
During the post-production stages of Bodyguard, Siddique had the idea of remaking the film in Tamil. He later announced his decision to remake the film with enhancements in the script to better suite the Tamil audience. The film was initially referred to as "Kaavalkaaran," which transliterally means "bodyguard" in Tamil. After rumours of the title being changed to Kaaval Kaadhal, the film was officially confirmed to be titled as Kaavalan in August 2010 The reason for the name confusion and its eventual permanent change was due to the complications in obtaining the rights to the title of "Kavalkaran" from M. G. Ramachandran's producers. They refused to sell the title to Vijay, leading to the rechristening of the title to Kaavalan
Casting
With the announcement of the remake, Siddique had finalized Vijay to play the lead role, reminiscent to their previous venture Friends (2001), which was aiso a remake of Siddique's own Malayalam film. Asin Thottumkal was signed up to pair with Vijay for the third time after their previous pairings in Sivakasi (2005) and Pokkiri (2007), also giving Thottumkal a comeback in Tamil cinema after her last appearance in Dasavathaaram (2008). Vadivelu, Rajkiran, and Roja Selvamani were also signed up for supporting characters. The film's principal shoot began in April at Kumbakonam.
Filming
An incident occurred on sets in April, where Asin, her father, and her make up assistants had fainted in their caravan after being exposed to a gas leak. They were treated in hospital the same day and were eventually discharged. The second shoot schedule occurred in Vellore. Vijay and Asin, along with director Siddique and rest of crew had taken part in the shooting at the Vellore Institute of Technology. A song was shot at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, making it Vijay's second trip to the country for a film shoot after Kuruvi.
