Kamal Haasan Repeats His ‘Hindu Terrorist’ Remark, Says, “It Is A Historical Truth”

Days after creating a row with his Hindu terrorist remark, Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) founder Kamal Haasan reiterated on Wednesday that independent India’s first extremist was a Hindu.

Campaigning in Thiruparankundram Assembly constituency for his party candidate contesting in May 19 by-election, Haasan said: “In Aravakuruchi I said independent India’s first extremist was a Hindu. It is a historical truth.”

Haasan said some people were getting angry over his remark.

Haasan said all his family members were Hindus and he would not talk in any manner to hurt their feelings.

According to him, people without listening fully to his speech at Aravakurichi were alleging that he was creating enmity amongst communities.

He said the truth will always be bitter and that bitterness will turn into medicine.
