Superstar and politician Kamal Haasan is currently facing a lot of backlash over his recent comments about Sanatan Dharma. Amid the flak, he has now received a death threat from a television actor, named Ravichandran, over his recent comments. The veteran actor made a remark slamming the central government's NEET medical entrance exam at an event, making a reference to the Sanatana Dharma. His comments did not sit well with right-wing supporters.

Actor Ravichandran, who has been seen in several television shows, called for Haasan's boycott, calling the latter a "naive politician". Additionally, he also said that he would "slit his throat" for his comments against Sanatana Dharma.

After receiving the threat, the members of Haasan's Makkal Needhi Maiam party reportedly lodged a complaint at the Chennai Police Commissioner’s office on Sunday. They even sought protection for the superstar.
