Curiosidades

Kaappaan (transl. Protector) is a 2019 Indian Tamil-language action thriller film directed by K. V. Anand, who co-wrote the script with Pattukkottai Prabakar. The film, produced by Lyca Productions, stars Suriya, Mohanlal and Arya in lead roles along with Sayyeshaa, Samuthirakani, Poorna, Boman Irani and Chirag Jani in supporting roles. The narrative revolves around a Special Protection Group (SPG) officer who struggles to protect the Prime Minister of India from a mysterious man who threatens to assassinate him.

Production

In January 2018, Suriya announced that his next film, tentatively titled Suriya 38, would be directed by K. V. Anand, who earlier directed him in Ayan (2009) and Maattrraan (2012). A month later, Lyca Productions was announced to produce the film. The script was written by Pattukkottai Prabakar, rather than Anand's usual associates, the duo Subha, though Anand shared screenwriting credit.

Initially, Gavemic U. Ary was announced as the cinematographer, but in a turn of events Abhinandhan Ramanujam replaced him. Later, he too left the project after the first schedule, apparently due to scheduling conflicts with cinematography commitments for the Malayalam film 9. Subsequently, M. S. Prabhu who collaborated with Suriya and Anand on Ayan, was finalised.

Allu Sirish initially agreed to act in the film, but later opted out due to scheduling conflicts with ABCD (2019), and was replaced by Arya. Amitabh Bachchan was approached to portray the Prime Minister of India as a cameo but later Mohanlal agreed to do it. Prem Kumar shot for the film simultaneously with Sarkar (2018). The film also marks Boman Irani's Tamil debut. Principal photography commenced on 25 June 2018, in London.
