Kamal Haasan Calls on Citizens to Embrace the Values of the Indian Constitution
As India commemorates the 75th anniversary of its Constitution, actor and political leader Kamal Haasan has taken to social media to encourage citizens nationwide to read, comprehend, and uphold the fundamental principles laid out in this critical document. While the Constitution was officially adopted on November 26, 1949, it was not until January 26, 1950, that it became the law of the land, marking India’s transition to a republic.
During this significant observance, Kamal Haasan—who founded the political party Makkal Needhi Maiam—emphasized the importance of recognizing what it truly means to be an Indian. He urged the public to honor the contributions of the founding figures of the Constitution. In his heartfelt message on Constitution Day, he called for a renewed commitment to the ideals enshrined in the Constitution and urged all to strive toward realizing the aspirations of a truly independent and progressive India.
Kamal articulated that the Constitution was designed to reflect the essence of India’s rich cultural heritage, the ideologies cultivated during the freedom struggle, and the aspirations of countless citizens. He noted that the architects of the Constitution provided not only a framework for governance but also a visionary outlook for a unified India. Currently, he is engaged in the filming of an action thriller titled Thug Life, directed by the acclaimed Mani Ratnam.
In a notable announcement coinciding with his 70th birthday, Kamal revealed the release date for Thug Life. Taking to X, he unveiled a striking new poster and teaser that confirmed the film will hit theaters on June 5, 2025. The promotional image portrays Kamal adopting a fresh persona, featuring long hair and a beard, alongside co-star Silambarasan TR, who will play a significant role in the narrative.
Attached to the poster was a teaser, presenting glimpses of the action-packed sequences that viewers can anticipate. Kamal’s message accompanying the visuals underscored his approach to his craft, stating, “Every role is an evolution, every film a journey. #Thuglife.” The excitement builds as fans await this new cinematic venture from one of India’s most celebrated actors.
