Kamal Haasan cancels birthday celebrations in solidarity with the people affected by rains

Kamal Haasan has cancelled his birthday celebration plans and requested the fans to spend it more wisely by focussing on the rehabilitation of the rain-hit victims.

“This year he has decided not to celebrate his birthday while Chennai people are distressed by the rains. Instead, he will be visiting a medical camp, set up by his Narpani Iyakkam (welfare movement) at Avadi. Later, he would pay a visit to the rain-affected areas such as Narayanapuram, S Kolathur Road and Pallikarani. He would also be reaching out to people with his special message and plans for the future,” read an official statement from his spokesperson.

Kamal Haasan is also expected to launch a mobile app today to stay connected with his fans and as the first step in his political entry.
