Why did Thalapathy Vijay return to Kerala for GOAT shoot?

According to Keralakaumudi, the climax scene of GOAT was scheduled to be shot in Sri Lanka. However, the location was changed to Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, after Venkat Prabhu's cousin Bhavatharani died of cancer while being treated in Sri Lanka. This is why Thalapathy Vijay has returned to Kerala.
