VA Durai is seeking help for his medical treatment. The producer is suffering from diabetes and is unable to walk due to its severe complications. 

Durai's living conditions have become bad and his livelihood is heavily affected. In a video shared by his friend, the Lootu producer said that he has become a refugee as he is staying in his friend's house in Saligramam. 

He revealed that he has no one to take care of him. Moreover, the Tamil film producer shared that he has developed sores in his leg due to acute diabetes and is not in a position to afford treatment at the hospital. 

In the video, he said, "I have been facing quite a bit of problems because of my legs. I cannot walk. I don’t have any other health issues. My financial status is depleted and my livelihood is difficult. I appeal to one and all to help me.” 

Take a look at the video:

Durai was previously treated at the Sri Ramachandra Hospital before being shifted to Vijaya Hospital in Vadapalani, Chennai. However, he came back home since he can't afford treatment.
