Kamal Haasan Faces Backlash Over Sanatana Dharma Remarks

Share


Veteran actor Kamal Haasan has once again found himself at the center of a controversy — this time over remarks made at a recent public event that have drawn strong backlash from the Tamil Nadu BJP.

Speaking at an event hosted by actor Suriya’s Agaram Foundation, Kamal Haasan emphasized the transformative power of education, stating that it is the only tool capable of changing a nation and breaking what he referred to as the chains of dictatorship and Sanatana. These comments have sparked outrage in certain political and religious circles.

Following the event, Tamil Nadu BJP Secretary Amar Prasad Reddy shared a video clip of Kamal’s speech on social media, accusing the actor of making derogatory remarks about Sanatana Dharma. Reddy called on Hindus to boycott Kamal Haasan’s films, stating, “Let this be a message: Speak against Sanatana Dharma, and face the consequences.”

He also compared Kamal’s remarks to earlier statements made by Udhayanidhi Stalin, claiming that both leaders had shown disrespect toward Hindu beliefs. Reddy urged the public to boycott their films to express disapproval of such statements, which he said hurt the sentiments of millions of Hindus.

This isn’t the first time Kamal Haasan has stirred public debate. Just months ago, he faced criticism in Karnataka for his comments suggesting that the Kannada language originated from Tamil. In response, the Karnataka Film Chamber imposed a one-month ban on his film Thug Life.

As public reactions continue to pour in, Kamal Haasan’s statements have once again ignited discussions on freedom of speech, cultural sensitivity, and the fine line public figures walk when voicing personal beliefs in public forums.
