Watching this, the producer’s facial expression changed. It so happened that fan was running in the high speed and one of the photos flew and fell in the dustbin. As the producer was busy talking to someone, Ashwath kept Majula’s photos on his table. Ashwath soon collected her photos and got them to producer Gowda’s office.
