For Arjun's nude sequence in 'Oke Okkadu', Peter Heins was the body double. He shot the scene in which fire engulfs him after applying gel to his body.

Peter Heins was hesitant to go to the shoot as he knew he mayn't return home again. He then cried in the bathroom and could look into the eyes of his wife & son before leaving to the shoot. Finally, He shot the scene by apply pan cake to his back.
