Pronunciation of the original Tamil film on which Force is based - Kaakka Kaakka

Today the John Abraham starrer Force hits the screens. The film is a remake of the 2003 Tamil film Kakka Kaakka. Now I am sure you have already been told this by the umpteen TV and radio channels. But they all seem to be pronouncing the Tamil film as Kakka Kakka (rememmber Kakkaaji Kahin of Om Puri of "entertainmentvaa hee nahee.n to takasvaa kaahe kaa" fame). The correct pronunciation of the original Tamil film is Kaakka Kaakka (it means 'to protect'). car-cur car-cur or काक्कअ काक्कअ is the correct way to pronounce it. If you can read Tamil, this is how it is written காக்க காக்க.
