However, Mohan set an unusual demand to Rajasenan, to include some experienced directors to superwise him on script. This was unacceptable to Rajasenan and the project was shelved.
It was at this time that Rajasenan was replaced from the crew of a political film, Janam, produced by Mani. C. Kappan. Kappan assured Rajasenan to produce a film for him, obviously as a compensation for his move. The shelved story of Meleparambil Aanveedu was returned by Mohan, for a reasonable amount of 20,000.
