One of the most versatile actors the Indian film industry is blessed with is Kamal Haasan, who has a passion for pushing the boundaries of filmmaking and technology. He has been a pioneer in introducing innovative techniques to Indian cinema. Today, he made a special request to his fans, the media, and others.

The legendary actor took to his social media profiles to share a note in which he expresses his gratitude for the titles he has received, such as Ulaganayagan, and the love shown by his fans and colleagues. However, he believes that cinema is a collective art form, and no individual should be elevated above the craft. He humbly requests that people refer to him simply as Kamal Haasan, Kamal, or KH, as he wants to remain grounded, focused on learning and improving, and stay connected to his roots and the community of people who love cinema.

This is not the first time a star has made such a request. In 2021, star hero Ajith also asked his fans and the media to refrain from calling him by titles such as Thala. Since then, he has been referred to by his name. Will the media and fans follow the same approach with Kamal Haasan? Let’s wait and see how the internet responds.
