Madurai: Actor - turned Politician Kamal Haasan launched his political party named as மக்கள் நீதி மய்யம் ('Makkal Needi Maiam') yesterday at the Othakkadai ground in Madurai. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was present at the function. Kerala Chief Minister sent a greetings video as he could not attend the function. Kamal Haasan hoisted the party flag and promised to move out corruption. Kamal Haasan said he was forced to come into politics as the governments were not showing any signs of developing the state. "This clearly indicates that he will not go with AIADMK, DMK and the BJP, " say political experts. Many people who attended the meeting said that they voted for AIADMK due to the presence of Jayalalithaa. But now, without her, they won't vote for the AIADMK. Instead, they said that they will vote for Kamal Hassan in the upcoming elections. Important members of the party were Actor and Tamil Professor Gnanasambandhan, actor Vaiyyapuri and tamil lyricist Snehan.
Like people called Jayalalithaa as "Amma" and Karunanidhi as "Kalaignar", now they call Kamal Haasan as "Nammavar."(meaning our man).
