It was tough transport, production crew had to take the spead boat for about 3 hours to reach near location resort as we all coul not fit in to the sea plane. But it was fun indeed. Since Maldives doesn't have any equipments (up to industry standards) we have to get every single thing from Sri Lanka. But there is no pain with customs as we had excellent suport handling customs in Sri Lanka as well as in Maldives. Both local knowladge and the contacts pay the ultimate. Getting small props fixed in Maldives was pretty expensive. We would have rather bring everything from Sri Lanka.

Anna (the producer) already found the location and we (CFS) were hired last minute to assist with the productions . With our Maldivian associate producer and production manager we managed evrything withing few days. We had a wonderful stay at Abdul Latheef Hassan @ Beach Stay Maldives was far excellent taking care of all our creazy requests like, finding shells and fixing some Grip equipments!. Also very special thanks goes to all the staff and the management at Angsana Velavaru Resort. Thank you Hassaan Shareef for all your supports.
