Will serve people for the rest of my life: Kamal Haasan

Chennai, Feb 21 (IBNS): As he launched his own political party named "Makkal Needhi Maiam" at a gala event in Madurai, actor-turned-politician Kamal Haasan on Wednesday promised that he will work for the welfare of the people for the rest of his life.

Speaking at the event, Haasan said: "We have a future. Let us march towards that future. I am looking for future leaders. I am sowing the seeds for future generations."

"My remaining life will be for you and in your service,” he claimed.

Enlightening about his party’s logo, which consists of a circle of hands holding one another in colours red, white and black and a star in the Centre, Haasan said that it represents the six south Indian states working together.

He said he does not belong to the left or right wing and represents the star in the centre.

“People are not bothered about left or right. What matters is what we do for our people. We should not be silent anymore," said he.

Haasan launched his political party in the presence of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

While addressing the gathering and congratulating Haasan on starting his political journey, Kejriwal said,  “By the number of people present here for the launch, I am sure Haasan’s party will break the record AAP set in Delhi.”
