As National Film Award-winning actor Kamal Haasan ringed in his 67th birthday on Sunday, actors including Rana Daggubati, Ayushmann Khurrana, Ranganathan Madhavan, Mohanlal, and others extended heartfelt wishes on social media to make the day even more special for him.

 

Earlier today, Kamal Haasan had taken to his Twitter handle and expressed what could be the best birthday gift for him. His tweet in Tamil roughly translates as: "Dear friends, hurry up and help the poor people affected by the floods; This might be the best birthday gift you can give me."


Taking to his Twitter handle, superstar Rana Daggubati posted his pictures with all three stars, Kamal Haasan, Anushka Shetty and trivikram Srinivas, to extend his birthday greetings. He tweeted, "Happy birthdays to some seriously awesome people I've had the honour of meeting in life!! #Trivikram @MsAnushkaShetty @ikamalhaasan."

Taking to his Instagram handle, Ayushmann Khurrana shared a black and white throwback picture of the legendary actor and wrote, "Happy birthday @ikamalhaasan sir."

There is none like him and will never be. @ikamalhaasan wish you a fantastic year ahead sir, full of health wealth and happiness."

Other actors including Kajal Aggarwal, Shankar, and Ali Fazal among other celebrities from the film industry also sent heartfelt birthday wishes to the legendary star.

Earlier, Kerala CM Pinarayi Vijayan also extended warm birthday wishes to veteran actor turned politician, on his Twitter handle.

Fondly called a 'universal hero', Kamal Haasan started his acting career when he was just six with the 1959 film Kalathur Kannama. He was awarded the prestigious President's Gold Medal for his role as an orphaned child in the film.

Apart from being an actor, he is a dancer, singer, director, producer, lyricist, and politician too, who has worked in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam, Kannada, and Bengali films.

The actor has bagged 4 National Film Awards and more than 15 Filmfare Awards throughout his acting career. His best works include films like: 'Hey Ram', 'Chachi 420', 'Moondram Pirai', Mani Ratnam's 'Nayakan' and more.

He has also been a recipient of Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan, the fourth and third highest civilian honours awarded by the Government of India respectively.

He formed the centrist party Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM), a regional political party in Tamil Nadu. Kamal began his political journey from late President A. P. J. Abdul Kalam's residence and his memorial at Rameswaram.

Meanwhile, on the film front, Kamal will be next seen in the much-anticipated action thriller film 'Vikram' written and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and produced by Raaj Kamal Films International.

The film also features Vijay Sethupathi, and Fahadh Faasil in the lead roles along with Shivani Narayanan, Kalidas Jayaram, Narain, Antony Varghese, and Arjun Das in supporting roles.

The movie that marks Lokesh's first collaboration with Kamal Haasan is slated to hit the screens worldwide in April 2022.
