Srikanth was recently seen chased by a gang of goons on the roads of Tirupur, the textile capital of Tamil Nadu. The actor, who was on a bicycle with his love interest Janani Iyer, was desperately trying to escape from the clutches of the baddies.

Narrating the incident further, Srikanth says, 'We were shooting the scene for "Paagan" when many residents started believing that it was a real chase. Only then they realised that it was a cinema shooting. The sequence will be a highlight of the movie.'

Besides "Paagan", Srikanth is eagerly awaiting the release of two of his other movies- "Nanban" and "Ethiri Enn 3". In Nanban directed by Shankar, he has shared the screen space with Vijay and Jiiva. The remake of "3 Idiots" will hit the screens for Pongal.

In "Ethiri Enn 3" directed by debutant Ramkumar, Srikanth is playing a software professional, who is troubled by mafia. 'The film is about how dangerous night life in Chennai is. It will be a different kind of action thriller,' he says.
