Suresh was protected to a rope held by a crane and as the scene started, the rope snapped. Suresh fell from almost 20 ft high and was hurried to the medical facility where he was stated dead.
Police have actually started an examination into the matter. Director Vetrimaaran, understood for movies like Vada Chennai and Asuran, is yet to make an official declaration on Suresh’s death.
