According to DT Next, FEFSI banned the studio earlier. They quoted the erstwhile head of FEFSI, Siva as saying, “Chandran, the production assistant is one of the founding members of FEFSI. Today we have lost him due to negligence. EVP Studios was banned by FEFSI and quite a few films were not given permission to shoot in EVP last year. However, the venue reopened after the owners requested us to permit shoots despite accidents that took place. If adequate safety checks were done by FEFSI, we wouldn’t have lost three lives”.

According to a report in DT Next, the crane operator was not a trained professional, who did not know to operate the crane properly.
