Ashwin
Kakumanu,
who
was
last
seen
in
Neerthirai,
has
clarified
that
he
is
not
a
part
of
Gautham
Vasudev
Menon's
web
series.
The
ace
filmmaker
was
earlier
said
to
be
directing
an
episode
of
an
anthology
film
based
on
the
theme
of
honour
killing,
with
directors
like
Sudha
Kongara,
Vetri
Maaran
and
Vignesh
Shivan
helming
the
other
episodes.
Earlier,
reports
suggested
that
Ashwin
will
be
essaying
the
lead
role
in
Menon's
episode,
but
the
actor
clarified
the
same
and
tweeted,
"Wanted
to
say
that
while
I
look
forward
to
the
opportunity
of
working
with
Gautham
Menon
again,
I
am
not
part
of
his
anthology
for
Netflix
India.
I
think
it
was
confused
with
my
role
in
the
Telugu
anthology
for
#Netflix.
Hope
this
clarifies
things."
