Raghu Ram recalls calling Ajith Kumar by his name on set

The actor admitted that he didn’t initially realise how big an opportunity it was to star opposite Ajith and spoke about the cultural differences he encountered on set. He recalled, “Initially, I had a problem with that. I grew up in Delhi and worked in Mumbai as well. We call our superiors by name. When I went to the shoot, Ajith came and introduced himself to me. Since he was around the same age as I am, I started calling him by his name. And it was awkward.”

Raghu Ram recalls being reprimanded by the director

He further shared how the director and assistant director “told him off” for addressing the star by name, adding, “The entire crew was shocked, and there was silence. Later, the crew told me it was disrespectful. The director and assistant director, when we went to Spain for shooting, told me off. Then, I told them I’d call him ‘Sir’, not for any fault of his, but because people were uncomfortable. I think he’s not used to people talking to him normally.”
