Veteran actor Kamal Haasan doesn't want his fans to call him Ulaganayagan. Known for his prolific acting, Haasan is one of the most acclaimed actors in Indian cinema, whose work has transcended generations.&nbsp;

Over the years, Haasan has been fondly called Ulaganayagan and&nbsp;Aandavar&nbsp;by his millions of fans. And the actor has all respect for these fan titles. However, now the actor doesn't want to be addressed by these names anymore.&nbsp;

Days after celebrating his 70th birthday, Haasan shared a long statement in Tamil and English, requesting his fans to refer to him as Kamal Haasan, Kamal or KH.&nbsp;

In the statement, the actor wrote, "I have always felt a deep sense of gratitude over being bestowed with endearing titles as Ulaganayagan, among others. Such accolades, given by the people and recognised by esteemed colleagues and admirers, has always been humbling, and I've been genuinely moved by your love in conferring it upon me (sic)."

After a long wait, Nag Ashwin's Kalki 2898 AD is finally out in the theatres. The movie stars some of the biggest stars of Indian cinema such as Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Kamal Haasan. Released on May 27, the movie has garnered a wide range of reactions from critics and audiences alike. Since the release, viewers have questioned Kamal's limited screen time in the movie.&nbsp;

In the movie inspired by Hindu mythology, Kamal plays the role of antagonist Yaskin. The actor's&nbsp;eerie appearance and prolific villanious performance have earned a lot of appraisal from the audience.&nbsp;

<h2>Kamal Haasan on His Limited Screen Time&nbsp;</h2>

During a press meet in Chennai, the veteran star opened up about his role in Nag Ashwin's sci-fi movie as he went on to share the details about his role in the second part.&nbsp;

Talking about his less screen time, Kamal said, as per Indian Express, “In Kalki, I have played a small role that makes an appearance for a few minutes only. My real part in the film has only begun and I will have more to do in the second part. So, I watched this film as a fan and I was astonished.”

Haasan added, “We have been seeing many signifiers that Indian cinema is moving towards global entertainment, and Kalki 2898 AD is one among them. Nag Ashwin carefully handled the subject of mythology without any religious bias. Across the world, only Japan, China, and Greek civilizations can come close to the Indian heritage of storytelling. Ashwin has chosen stories from that and has executed it with a lot of patience by bringing everyone together.”

After the release of Kalki 2898 AD, Haasan is now busy promoting his next movie Indian 2, which will release on July 12.&nbsp;

<h2>Kamal Haasan Hails Amitabh Bachchan</h2>

Bachchan's age-defying performance in Kalki has become the talk of the whole internet, with netizens going gaga over his stunts and chilling performance. Praising BigB's work in the movie&nbsp;during the press meet, Haasan said,&nbsp;“I don’t know if I should call him a veteran or a fresh actor. He has done the film that well.“It looks like the film has been made for children. Now, don’t ask how a man with white hair can enjoy such films. This film reminds you of the child that’s within every adult. This is a great attempt and I am happy to be part of it. I am happy that this journey is going to continue.”&nbsp;

Kalki 2898 AD Review 
 
WION's film critic Shomini Sen wrote that ''Kalki 2898 AD borrowed plot lines and shoddy screenplay make the film borderline comical and utterly disappointing.''&nbsp;

Sen writes, ''Written by Nag Ashwin, the film has taken huge references from Dune, Star Wars, Mad Max: Fury Road, Blade Runner and even Marvel movies. It's a slow first half and an unnecessary subplot involving Disha Patani and Prabhas's forced romance and gallivanting around the complex. Kalki 2898 AD takes its time to establish the plot. The action mostly begins in the second half, when the pace picks up. However, by then the mind-numbing, long action sequences take precedence and the plot stops making sense. At one point on the screen, we see two giant Amitabh Bachchans fighting each other. Then there is a flying Prabhas with his aid, a robotic- AI-driven car/confidante who also turns into a giant robot, sports car, and spaceship at Prabhas' will.'' <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/kalki-2898-ad-review-a-film-about-giant-amitabh-bachchan-flying-prabhas-and-distressed-deepika-padukone-735633">Read full review here.&nbsp;</a>

Actor-turned-politician Kamal Haasan has entered the 2024 Lok Sabha election race.&nbsp;Haasan, who is the president of the political party Makkal Needhi Maim (MNM), will be contesting&nbsp;the upcoming general election, either from Coimbatore or Chennai.

Earlier this week, Haasan's party was allotted the symbol of ''battery torch''. According to reports, the actor's party MNM is likely to&nbsp;join hands with DMK and Congress and&nbsp;contest as part of the INDIA bloc alliance.&nbsp;

Haasan made his foray into the political world in 2018, and his party has been quite active in Coimbatore in recent years. In 2021, he contested&nbsp;the assembly election from Coimbatore South but&nbsp;lost to BJP's Vanathi Srinivasan by a slinder&nbsp;margin of 1,50 votes. In the 2019 Lok Sabha election, MNM candidate, Dr R&nbsp;Mahendran fought from the Coimbatore Lok Sabha seat.&nbsp;

Sources have revealed that Coimbatore has been the first choice for Kamal, but he will not mind contesting in Lok Sabha elections from either Chennai&nbsp;North, South or Central constituencies.

Coimbatore seat is currently represented by CPI-M, while all three Chennai seats are bagged by&nbsp;DMK. In 2021, Kamal&nbsp;joined Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra.&nbsp;However, the actor later clarified that he did that for united India as he urged not to mistake his participation for leaning towards a "party".

Reacting to his role, the actor-politician said, ''50 years back, when I was a dance assistant and an assistant director the name Ashwini Dutt loomed large in the production sector. Both of us are coming together after 50 years. A brilliant director from our next generation is at the helm. My co-stars Mr. Prabhas and Ms. Deepika are also of that generation. I have worked with Amit Ji before. Yet every time it feels like the first time. Amit Ji keeps reinventing himself. I am also emulating that inventive process. I am eagerly waiting for Project K. Whatever position the audience places me at, my primary quality is that I am a film buff. That quality will keep me applauding any new attempt in my industry. Let mine be the first applause for Project K. With our director Nag Ashwin’s vision I am sure that applause will echo across our country and the world of cinema.''

<h2>More about Project K</h2>

Ashwin's pan-Indian film will be high on action and VFX. The film has been made on a sprawling budget.&nbsp;

Multiple reports have suggested that many prolific Hollywood action directors have been hired. The movie will hit theatres in January 2024.&nbsp;

However, the film's shoot has been delayed after Big B got injured on the Hyderabad set of the movie. The 80-year-old actor suffered a muscle tear.&nbsp;

A source earlier revealed, "It is still not clear how long it would take Bachchan saab to resume normal shooting, and the director (Nag Ashwin) and producers (Vyjayanthi Movies) are in no hurry. They are putting no pressure on Bachchan Saab to resume shooting. They will wait for as long as it takes. But it is unlikely now that Project K will make its January 2024 release date."
