Kamal Haasan FAQ

Kamal Haasan (b. November 7, 1954, Ramanathapuram) is a legendary Indian actor, filmmaker, and politician. Over nearly 60 years, he's won 71 awards and 108 nominations, famed for performances in Hey Ram, Vishwaroopam, Dasavathaaram, and Vikram

His 234th film Thug Life (released June 5, 2025) is a Tamil gangster-action drama directed by Mani Ratnam. Despite mixed reviews and underwhelming box office numbers (~₹93 cr), it sparked debate and marked their first collaboration since Nayakan (1987)

Next up is Indian 3, directed by Shankar, slated for February 20, 2026, continuing the Indian vigilante saga. He’s also lined up KH237 (action entertainer, targeted October 2025) and appeared in teaser roles for Kalki 2898 AD

Yes—during late 2024, he attended an AI course in the US and discussed integrating tech into film. He’s now strategically choosing ventures with solid funding, including potential ties with Malayalam cinema

Despite star ensemble and AR Rahman’s soundtrack, the film drew criticism for its weak script and execution. Karnataka briefly blocked its release before the Supreme Court intervened. Yet, composer James Vasanthan called it a "masterpiece"—a rare divergence from public sentiment
