Kamal promises to return ‘debt’ to Shah Rukh Khan
Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan has revealed that he owes a lot to
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan who starred in his home production
Hey Ram more than a decade back. Kamal made his ‘dream film’ in Tamil
and Hindi and underwent many changes in his facial and physical
appearance in bringing to reality his role of ‘Saket Ram’ in the film.
Shah Rukh Khan was recently in Chennai to accept a special award at the Vijay
Awards ceremony conducted by Vijay Television. When he spoke at the
function, Kamal Haasan revealed that Shah Rukh didn’t take any money for
starring in Hey Ram. The film had Rani Mukherjee and Vasundhara Das as the heroines and also starred the likes of Atul Kulkarni and Naseeruddin Shah.
“I owe a lot to Shah Rukh who didn’t demand any money in starring in
my Hey Ram. He was so magnanimous in his approach and attitude. A top
hero like him working in a film without taking anything as his fee is a
rare thing indeed. Shah Rukh is really a wonderful person. However, I’m
planning to ‘repay my debt’ to him and would do so in the months to
come,” said Kamal.
In what way is he planning to ‘repay’ the debt would be known soon!
