Politics is a crown of thorns, but I am willing to wear it: Kamal Haasan on joining politics

In an exclusive interview with India Today, Tamil superstar Kamal Haasan confirmed his entry into politics after months of political deliberations and insinuations.

"Entering politics would be like donning crown of thorns," said Haasan. The admission comes hours after he met Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal.  

When asked if he had any right or left leanings, Haasan said that he would rather be right in the centre. "People concerned are not interested in left or right or any isms. I think if you look at people and their concerns, the isms will find its way," he said.
