Sixty glorious years in Indian cinema, in a life span of sixty–five is an unmatched, unique and unequivocal success standard to hold for an actor who is a polymath in the world of cinema and social life.
Padmabhushan Kamal Haasan‘s name stands for prodigious talent and hard work in equal measure. He is the golden bench mark of ‘quality for the present and future generations of actors, writers, producers and technical teams in the film fraternity. A man who is a living example of how passion for one‘s art can transform an icon into a legend
Kamal Haasan‘s contribution to Indian cinema is a stand–alone stamp in the hallmark of fame, because his is an inimitable journey – he is perhaps the sole Indian have acted in more than one language as a leading man and who has seen box-office success in those outings.
