Chennai, Jun 5 (PTI) In a gathering that drew much attention, eminent actor Kamal Haasan took to the stage alongside stars of 'Thug Life', such as Silambarasan, on Wednesday. Notably, Haasan refrained from addressing the controversy stemming from his recent remarks concerning the Kannada language.

During his speech, Haasan lauded the dedication and the international standards achieved in the Mani Ratnam-directed film 'Thug Life', slated for release on June 5. He expressed gratitude by stating, "I should thank the entire state of Tamil Nadu which stood behind me." This event marked Haasan's first public appearance following the Karnataka High Court's criticism of his statement suggesting that Kannada originated from Tamil.
