Taking to Twitter, the actor wrote, ¡°Water is entering my house and the level is rising badly in Karapakkam. I have called for help. No electricity, no wifi. No phone signal. Nothing. Only on the terrace at a particular point do I get some signal. Let's hope I and so many here get some help, I can feel for people all over Chennai.¡±
