Despite having an intravenous drip for the last few days, 55-year-old Rajendran went to watch the midnight show of the Rajini starrer, escaping from a government hospital, where he was admitted for kidney problem.
Various reports suggest that the deceased was seen enjoying the film and was having popcorn and a soft drink during the show.
