According to Jithu Chandran, director Jinu Abraham, last year, had asked him to design a title for Adam Joan. He had instructed Jithu Chandran to design an artistic title similar to that of Amen. Upon his instructions Jithu Chandran and his team started working on the design. However, the project got delayed by six months.
When the movie finally resumed, the director briefed Jithu Chandran about a few styles background. Jithu Chandran and his team again designed three posters, one of which was approved by the director. But after that director didn’t contact or inform them about any updates. Jithu Chandran alleges that Jinu Abraham didn’t show the courtesy to inform them that they had given the work to another team.
