Reacting to the Supreme Court verdict in the Cauvery dispute, actor Kamal Haasan today said he was shocked at the reduction in the supply of water for Tamil Nadu.
The actor, however, said that the fact that the Supreme Court had said that water could not be owned by any one state was a consoling factor.
"I am also shocked at the reduction in the supply of water. I have to get more details about the actual judgement but I think Supreme Court firmly said that water can't be owned by any state. That's a consoling factor,"Kamal Haasan said.

Kamal Haasan is all set to announce his political party on February 21.
