Expectations are deliberately higher for Vijay's 'Kaavalan' as the film is reported of being completely different from his previous movies. On the pars, the film has been facing several issues right from the beginning. Disputes with distributors, Asin's visit to Sri Lanka and so on. Finally, producer Sakthi Chidambaram has sorted out the issues and has decided to release the film with more prints. It is worth mentioning that the film has done a remarkable business in overseas.
Plans are to release the film for Christmas as the long yearend holiday should bring more audiences into theatres. But trade analysts predict that the chances maybe little for the film's release in December as there are more releases scheduled during this month. Tomorrow's releases – 'Chikku Bhukku' and Suriya's 'Rattha Sarithiram' followed by Sasikumar's 'Easan' and Kamal Haasan's 'Manmadhan Ambu'.
The cinema halls are likely to be occupied till Pongal as more releases are scheduled on the festive occasion including Dhanush's 'Aadukalam', 'Engeyum Kadhal', 'Ko' and Silambarasan's 'Vaanam'.
