Avan Ivan is a 2011 Indian Tamil-language comedy drama film directed by Bala and starring Vishal Krishna and Arya.
The film follows the relationship between two half-brothers, Walter Vanangamudi (Vishal) and Kumbudren Saamy (Arya), who are constantly at odds with each other. Both brothers are petty thieves, but their lives take a turn when they meet Highness (G.M. Kumar), a local zamindar who treats them like family.
The story unfolds as Walter's mother Maryamma (Ambika) encourages her son to steal, while Saamy's cross-eyed half-brother is not as skilled at thievery. The brothers' rivalry leads to various misadventures, including a performance by Walter that wins over the heart of Police Constable Baby (Janani Iyer).
The film features music by Yuvan Shankar Raja, cinematography by Arthur A. Wilson, and editing by Suresh Urs. It was produced by Kalpathi S. Agoram's AGS Entertainment and was successful at the box office.
