'I don't know if he is acting as a person with golden heart. Let me tell you my experience. We decided to do a film together. The movie's producer was Vijay Babu. Within days of pre-production, there was a Covid-induced lockdown. Everything was closed. After two or three months, Jayettan called and asked how are things going. To this, I replied that I am just managing things.

'I have put some money in youraccount'-he said. It was a situation where I couldn't say no. Actor Jayasurya didn't have to help someone like me. I haven't paid back that Rs 2 lakh till this day. This can also be a part of acting 'good guy' in real life. I don't know," Ratheesh commented.
