Laadam’s shooting commenced and a scene
where Charmi is riding a cruiser was being shot
on the Poonamallee Highway. Prabhu known for his
candid filmmaking style was shooting this sequence
from a car traveling in front, when a bike, approaching
Koyambedu Junction, scraped Charmi’s bike
coming in the opposite direction and toppled its
rider. This infuriated the riders of the bike
resulting in a clash with the film crew who came
to the Charmi’s rescue. Finally the police
had to intervene and stop things from getting
out of hand. These are the troubles associated
with candid filmmaking, definitely an experience
that Charmi and Prabhu wouldn’t forget.
