The actor had even requested Thala Ajith to help him with the critical situation through a video message on social media. Notably, many people from the fraternity came forward and helped him.

Talking about his last film Kanne Kalaimane, the film also starred Udhayanidhi Stalin and Tamannaah Bhatia in the lead roles. The film performed well at the box office. Apart from this, Theepetti had worked in more than ten Tamil films.

May his soul rest in peace!
