One of the dialogues said by Sethupathi from the trailer confirms the rumours — “It is not my question, the nation wants to know.” Sethupathi’s lady love is Madonna Sebastin, who plays a television reporter. A social issue that the hero takes up lands him in trouble with the channel bosses, which forms the crux of the story. KV Anand, the director, refused to say anything about the storyline. He said: “Kavan means catapult in Tamil and the title suits the story line, which involves one man aiming for his target. The film is packaged as a commercial entertainer with a neat message.” Anand has made five films in the past – Ayan and Maattraan with Suriya, Kana Kandaen with Srikanth, Ko with Jiiva and Anegan with Dhanush. All the five have worked at the box-office making their heroes commercially viable. Now the trade feels that Kavan will give its hero Vijay Sethupathi a new lease as a commercially viable hero and improve his star ratings. The film is Vijay Sethupathi’s costliest film and AGS the producers are planning to market it aggressively as the first big summer 2017 release on March 31.
