Kavin

From daytime television regular to box office draw, Kavin pulled off the jump to Kollywood leading man with pure graft. He paid his dues across soap operas and a rollercoaster reality show stint before convincing producers he had the chops to headline major features on his own.

His breakout emotional drama Dada proved he was no flash in the pan, packing theatres and silencing any lingering sceptics. With follow-up hits like Star under his belt, he's carved out a loyal following that loves watching an relatable underdog win big.
