Now, actor STR has expressed his feelings in a press statement. He said, "All the cinema artists and technicians, especially the stunt artists are returning home, escaping death everyday. I always believed for stars like me, each and every technician's hardwork helps us in our individual's growth. We all reach great heights mainly due to their selfless work. I treat all of them like my own family.
