Kaavalkaaran (Tamil: காவல்காரன் English: The Protector), is a 1967 Indian Tamil spy thriller film directed by Pa.Neelakandhan, starring M. G. Ramachandran in the lead role and J. Jayalalitha, M. N. Nambiar, S. A. Ashokan, Sivakumar, Nagesh among others. The film ran more than 100 days in major cities and up to 164 days in Sri Lanka. The film was remade in Hindi as Rakhwala.
Many (alias Manikkum) (MGR), stemming from a modest background, enters in the service of the billionaire Maradhatchalam (M. N. Nambiar), as the driver.
The charming daughter of this fantastically wealthy notable, Susheela (J.Jayalalitha) desperately falls in love with Many and mutually.
However, Many seems to be very worried. He does not confine itself only and apparently that in his driver's job.
Indeed, upset by the terrible secret (that her mother reveals him at the bedside of her agony) on his young brother Chandra (Sivakumar) and intrigued by the strange behavior and the actions of his boss, Maradhatchalam, Manikkum looks actively for the answers !
In spite of the categorical opposition of his father and contrary to all expectations, Susheela gets married to the man of its life, Manikkum.
But does she believe and do they think all to know or to seize Manikkum, really ?
But who is thus, in reality, this Many ? What does he plot ?
Another version
Mani (alias Manikkum) (MGR) is employed as a driver with Maruthachalam (M. N. Nambiar). Mani and his employer daughter Susheela (J.Jayalalitha) fall in love with each other and get married against Maruthachalam wishes.
