Kamal Haasan says "No political strings”

This is what Kamal Haasan remarked about the Kalaignar in his recent address during Kalaignar’s movie Pen Singam’s audio release: "We don’t have to flatter Kalaignar; in fact he is the one who is well bathing us with his Tamil prowess."

Kamal added, “Whenever I address in any function connected to Kalaignar Karunanidhi, people who are his favorites ask: ‘Did you learn this oratorical skill from him?’ While others not in his good books remark: ‘Why do you have to flatter him?’ I deem it an honor to talk about Kalaignar,” declared Kamal. He requested that such things should not be politicized.

In fact, saying a few words in praise of Kalaignar during a talk should not be considered flattery. Kamal signed off by saying, “There is no necessity to flatter a person of Kalaignar's stature who in fact is well showering us with his Tamil wisdom.”
