Kaavalan has now released to huge waves of excitement and fanfare and the fans are having a gala time at the theatres in Tamil Nadu and all around the world. But now its time to pay tribute to the man who has fought with this film and has gone through every inch of struggle to get this film to be playing at the theatres today. And thats ILAYATHALAPATHY VIJAY!After the lacklustre show of his previous films like Azhagiya Tamizh Magan, Kuruvi, Vettaikaran and Sura, the theatre owners had started demanding compensation from him for the losses suffered by them for screening the above films. Also with Vijay recently showing interest in getting into politics with all the flag release functions and the social welfare programs conducted by his fan clubs, the current ruling political party seems to have gotten into loggerheads with him for showing interest in politics as they fear that his entry into politics might eat into the vote banks that they want to secure for themselves in the upcoming elections in 2011. Also the issue of acting in the remake of 3 Idiots directed by Shankar has been troubling Vijay for quite sometime and he has finally opted out of such a big project which had led people to question his capability of selecting the right films in his career. But Vijay has fought back all of it and is reportedly said to be foregone his entire salary for Kaavalan and has also coughed up enough money from his own pocket to make sure that the film releases in time on Pongal day. He wanted to do this because he did not want to keep his fans waiting for more time, and he has finally given his fans a rocking and a 'treat more sweeter than Sakkara Pongal'.
As of now, the bookings for Kaavalan are going housefull at various centres in Tamil Nadu. The first show of the film started at around 11-12am on Pongal day (Jan 15th) and the bookings are showing a huge amount of interest from the fans and the general public alike. With a big number of positive reviews flowing in favor of the film from various online social networking sites and communities, Kaavalan is all set to bring Vijay back into big box office reckoning and will help his fans forget the recent bad times that they have had to endure. Will Kaavalan be another Poove Unakkaga, Kushi or a Thirumalai (films that brought back Vijay after a series of dull films)? The next few weeks will tell us the exact story.
