Famous comedian of Tamil films Lakshmi Narayanan Seshu recently died of a heart attack. He breathed his last on Tuesday, March 26 at Kauvery Hospital in Chennai. Sheshu was undergoing treatment there. While there is still silence in the South film industry due to the sudden demise of actor Sheshu, director K. Johnson has made a surprising claim about the late actor. A1 director Johnson says that Sheshu was not able to afford his treatment and due to this he lost his life. It was also said that no big star helped the late actor. Johnson had worked with Seshu in the films A1 and ‘Paris Jayaraj’. Seshu got recognition from the parody TV series ‘Lolu Sabha’, but he was made popular by Johnson’s film A1. In this film, Sheshu played the character of a drunkard, which was liked a lot. The bond between Johnson and Sheshu became strong from this film. Johnson shared his experience of working with Sheshu in an interview with Cinema Viktan. Also told that Sheshu had helped people a lot during the Corona period, but when he himself faced trouble, no one extended his hand and the actor died.

‘Sheshu helped everyone in Corona, was kind’
Johnson said, ‘Whenever I was in a good mood on the set, I used to call him Sheshu Mama. Whenever Seshu uncle heard this, he used to laugh. He was very kind and showered lots of love on everyone. If someone needed 25 kg of rice, he would collect it among all his acquaintances and distribute it. During Covid-19, he installed a speaker in his two-wheeler and kept announcing everywhere how important it is to wear a mask.

‘If big stars had come forward, Sheshu could have been saved’
Johnson further said, ‘It is very sad to think that such a person could not get help from people when he needed it most. Sheshu died only because he could not get Rs 10 lakh for his treatment. This is absolutely devastating. If big stars had come forward to help, they could have been saved.
