Hi everyone ,this time about an director who does writer director collaboration every-time which is an very healthy thing ..
The movie "Kavan" revolves around the plot of television media and its real face..I said it is most happening movie because knowingly or unknowingly the story had a big connect to TN nowadays .. Story wise the three writers and the director stand big ...
"K.V. Anand" this time didn't manipulate more commercialism in the movie especially the second half of the movie..A true respect for him for that ..It shows even big director like him and also big stars can avoid regular commercial factors and at the same time can give a interesting flick..
VJ sethupathy ,pandirajan,and vikranth,were really a plus for the movie. Dialogues were really good ,finally i need to say about the last 30 minutes of the movie where the real break down of conflicts happen ..but i dint want break the twist here ,go and watch it in theater for some real faces of Indian media.. Overall it will be a new K.V Anand movie with minimal commercial factors and more of conflicts

Director K.V.Anand keeps us engaging for 160 minutes with Kavan. The movie may have been based on some Clichés, but the movie is taken from a fresh perspective of what happens behind the cameras of the media. K.V.Anand is known for thinking out of the box, if you look at his movies "Matraan","Ayan","Anegan",etc.
The movie had a fast screenplay,for instance ,the movie's first 10 minutes was equal to an average Tamil movie, Such fast-paced the movie was. the main plot may have gotten buried upon all the things happening in the movie,the Audience may never even get the time to notice it. "Kavan" prompts the Audience to use their brains to all the things they were oblivious in the past.
Further, reviewing the movie without spoiling was that all the songs were good, HipHop Tamizha has done a good job, the songs will be in your head for a while, although the background scores could have been made more engaging. Coming to the cast,it had "Makkal Selvan" Vijay Sethupathy as the lead and Madonna Sebastin, they both have done a perfect job and the other cast includes actors from 3 Generations like TR and Pandian has helped in making the movie more reachable to all types of audiences. The one scene that was worth mentioning was the Pre-Interval block scene,it was unpredictable and gripping like most of the scenes in the movie. K.V.Anand has used all the cast as perfect as possible, which is where many others fail. Overall the movie will give you the immense satisfaction of watching something never before. So, I suggest you to watch it in theaters.

Often times, we get carried away by sensational news headlines and dramatic reporting. Kavan is a movie that shows how unethical some media houses can be. It is also about how the media panders to the whims of influential people such as politicians even to the point of victimising innocent people. It is mostly business without much regard for ethics or social responsibility. Bose Venkat has acted well as the crooked politician who seeks popularity through the media. Vijay Sethupathi as the the investigative journalist excels in his role. T. Rajendar plays an important role as the owner of a television station. Madonna Sebastian does not have a very significant role but complements Sethu as his girlfriend. Jegan provides some laughs. The song 'Oxygen' is worthy of mention,and cinematography is excellent.
This movie comes at you with the subtlety of a train wreck. The villains are comically poor, the plotting ridiculous and the entire story could have been drafted by a group of well trained monkeys. Vijay Sethupathi does himself no favors as he apparently attempts to move from intelligent hero to unintelligible icon. I got tired of groaning, there were so many over the top unbelievable scenes. It is hard to choose what is the worst - the story, the dialogues or the acting. Split three ways, perhaps?
The movie started off in a normal way but the way the power of media proved to be good as well as bad. Vijay Sethupathy's way of using pun in his dialogue took the heat of the media required for the movie to a different level. I felt that they cornered the media into too much of negative side which is slightly cinematic from reality. Especially, TR's role in the movie is mind blowing. All casts were well used and made a great impact in the movie. K.V. Anand and his love for media and politics again came into perfection after "KO"..
