The director duo Akbar-Jose are sure of completing their Aandavan, which has Kalabhavan Mani in the lead, and release the movie this March.

One-time assistants to director Kamal,the director duo are confident that Aandavan with lots of action, emotions and comedy would make it big.

For Kalabhavan, who plays a thief, who robs rich and gives to poor, 'the real world is being shown on reel. I can easily relate to the surroundings depicted here, where the so-called common population lives.'

On choosing Kalabhavan for the lead role, the directors say he is one actor who can tickle the funny bone while portraying the tough hero.

K Gireeshkumar has written the screenplay and dialogues for Aandavan. His earlier films include Amrutham and Alice in Wonderland. 'I am trying to strike a balance between supporting and lead roles', says Kalabhavan.

The cast includes Jagathy Sreekumar, Salimkumar and Anand.
