Aegan shooting stalled?

Refuting reports by the media that he was caught inside a caravan toilet for over two hours and thereby stalled Aegan's shooting, Sriman said that it was true that he was trapped but for just 30 minutes or so. Speaking to a Behindwoods correspondent, Sriman disclosed that the spring in the lock gave way and the door got jammed.

His efforts to attract the attention of the crew went futile, as his calls were not heard due to the noise from the generators. Finally, a worker noticed that he was trapped inside and called the others for assistance. Sriman also clarified that the shooting was not stalled as he had completed his scene just then. "By the time I was out, the director had my scenes ready to be shot," Sriman added.

Though there are many celebrities in Kollywood saying that they are close friends of Superstar Rajnikanth and they adore him saying he is a real life superstar. But there are certain group of celebrities who are always watching out the downfall of Rajnikanth. We were able to spot the entire group when they threw a party to celebrate the failure of Baba. With Chandiramukhi and Sivaji making high waves across the globe, everyone in the group expected that Kuselan wouldn’t well since Rajnikanth is appearing in an exceptional role. They said so after misinterpreting that audiences wouldn’t accept superstar in a different role that has nothing to do with stunts, punch dialogues and styles.

But their hopes were completely dashed, with the film witnessing grand success even in the areas where the film said to be facing pre-release problems. Yes! Kuselan facing the problem of getting released in Karnataka was happy news for those actors and when the obstructions of release were hassled. Now, they are creating problems saying by other means of issues with a misbelieve that would put down Superstar.
