Director Bala is a busy bee now. He is working tirelessly to get his long-pending Naan Kadavul starring Arya completed and release it for Deepavali.

Karthiga has replaced Bhavana in Naan Kadavul. She plays the role of a blind beggar.

After much delay, Bala recommenced shooting for the film at interior areas of southern Tamilnadu. The movie is shaping up fast. The second schedule is now shot in Periyakulam and Kumbakarai.

Buzz is that Bala is planning for release this Deepavali. Movies like Kamal Haasan's Dasavatharam and Vijay's Azhagiya Tamil Magan are getting ready for Deepavali.
