Jayam Ravi, who is riding the high tide with the success of his two recent releases Romeo Juliet and Sakalakala Vallavan, is gearing up for the release of Thani Oruvan on August 28th. The film which will feature the actor in an out-and-out action avatar has him pitted against Arvind Swami. Nayantara plays the female lead, while Ganesh Venkatram is doing a pivotal role.

Directed by the specialist of remakes M. Raja, the film is about the story of an honest police officer. Arvind Swami who made a soft come back with Kadal, appears in the film as the smooth talking baddie. The handsome actor who rose to fame with his charming boy next door looks has taken off his squeaky clean cape in this film for the very first time. His bad guy act in the trailer is quite impressive, as is Ravi's tough cop act. This has made the audience fall equally in love with both the characters. Let’s wait and watch if Arvind Swami outsmarts Jayam Ravi in the film!
