 Shankar seems to have endless problems with his cameraman. Nirav Shah was initially fixed for Rajnikanth's Robot but all of a sudden he was replaced by Thiru. Now it is learnt that Thiru has walked out of this project only to be replaced by Rathinavelu who is currently finishing Gautham Menon's Vaaranam Aayiram. Even in Annyan starring Vikram, the cameraman Manikandan handled the camera for the first half and Ravivarman did the second half.
The reason for the volatility of the lens man in Shankar film is attributed to the director himself for dragging the shooting for more than 2 years. It is an unwritten law that once the cameraman signs up for Shankar's film, they are not supposed to do any other film or Ad films. Such being the case the cameraman are reluctant to do any film with Shankar since they can do 2 or 3 films which can fetch them two folds of money compared to the remuneration which they get from Shankar.
