It is worth mentioning here that Lyca Productions head A Subaskaran has also been booked in the freak accident, and it was later found that they did not hold the proper no-objection certificate to conduct the shooting. It is also worth mentioning here that EVP Film City, Chennai where the accident took place has in recent times inadvertently played host to a number of deaths, all during filming.
