Keerthi Pandian's brave encounter with a snake

Young actress Keerthi Pandian of Tamil film '

Thumbaa

' fame, had given fans a peek into how she spends her lockdown when she put up a video of driving a tractor on her

farm

in her gated property. Now, the young heroine who is also the daughter of actor Arun Pandian has shown the audience her bravery by handling a

snake

that entered her compound.

A large brown snake seems to have slithered into her house compound and the young actress seems to have handled the situation calmly. Using just a

stick

, she made the snake move into a bucket and then she later let him loose in the neighbouring woods.

The snake was near her room window yesterday night. Sharing a few pictures and videos of her encounter with the snake, Keerthi Pandian said, "I was very sure I did not want to hit or kill him, though it was important to find out if he was a venomous or non-venomous snake. He got really scared and was looking for a way out because we were trying to move him."

The snake had apparently curled up knowing that the young actress wasn't going to hurt him, after which Keerthi Pandian tried to move the snake into a bucket using a stick.

"I was basically trying to convince the snake to enter the bucket (with the little knowledge I have of now not to instigate them too much). And then he obediently entered the bucket after I slightly nudged him from the side, directing him towards the bucket," she added.

Finally Keerthi let the snake free in the farm outside her house. It was a brave act by the young actress, who had similar encounters during the shoot of her debut film 'Thumbaa', which was shot in forest areas. Keerthi's upcoming titles include the remake of hit Malayalam film 'Helen', which will reportedly feature her father Arun Pandian playing the role of her dad in the film too.
