Dhaam Dhoom

Written, filmed and directed by Jeeva shortly before his death and produced by Sunanda Murali Manohar, it stars Ravi Mohan, Jayaram, Kangana Ranaut and Lakshmi Rai.

The film revolves around a Tamil Indian doctor who, two weeks prior to his wedding, goes to Russia for a conference pertaining to his occupation.

While in Russia, he struggles to cope with the language because of the Russian reluctance to speak English, and eventually, due to the gruesome murder of a local woman, he gets imprisoned.

[1] The film, released as a tribute to Jeeva, was completed by his assistant G.K.Manikandan, and his wife Anees, and was overseen by cinematographer P. C. Sriram.

She happens to be from the same village in which Gautham's sister Sarasu (Anu Haasan) resides with her husband (Chetan).

However, Sarasu's husband finds their love when he sees Gautham pinching Shenba's waist so hard that she screams.

Despite initial frictions between her father (Mahadevan) and uncle (Bose Venkat) with Gautham, they eventually agree to get the pair married.

Gautham is brutally dragged onto the floor by a Russian police officer the next morning, and the reason is that Anna is murdered on her sofa.

Gautham escapes from the police and is running around St. Petersburg with Aarthi, trying to figure out who murdered Anna and why he was caught up in the scandal.

In the final scene, Raghavan is killed by the police, and Gautham is set free to reunite with Shenba for their wedding.

[2][3] Reema Sen was chosen for a significant role in the film; however, 14 days after her confirmation, she pulled out of the project, citing differences with the director, Jeeva.

Reema Sen confirmed later to Kumudham magazine that she did not want to play the second lead in the film, and opted out of the project.

[4] On 19 February 2007, the producers confirmed the choice of Lakshmi Rai to essay the role dropped by Reema Sen.

The film started in January 2007 in India, with the initial shoot taking place in Chennai, consisting of Jayam Ravi surrounded by duplicate snow.

[6] The first schedule was shot in February 2007, in and around Pollachi, featuring the countryside backdrop, with scenes involving actors Jayam Ravi and Kangana Ranaut, among others.

[8] Finally, Anees announced that the film would be completed by her and Jeeva's assistant G.K. Manikandan, whilst Sriram would overlook their efforts.
