As per the same report, Producer Dhananjeyan revealed that the dance sequence for the song was shot a few days back. “Yes, we have bought the official rights to the song and used it as is, as a Malayali number without remixing it. Director Radha Mohan was the one who suggested we use the song at a crucial moment in KM (Kaatrin Mozhi),” Deccan Chronicle quoted Dhananjeyan as saying. Further, director Radha Mohan told the publication that he required a popular song that would immediately resonate with people, and ‘Jimikki Kammal’ fitted the bill perfectly “The sequence has Jyothika, who plays an RJ, celebrating her success by breaking into a dance as the song plays from a recorder. She is joined by her colleagues played by Lakshmi Manchu, Sandra, Sindhu Shyam, and Kumaravel. The song has been choreographed by Viji.” he added.
