Actor-director Kamal Haasan warned Thursday that he would "seriously leave" India if similar protests again envelop his films.
The versatile actor, who threatened Wednesday to quit India over the opposition to his Tamil-Telugu movie " Vishwaroopam", said that he wanted justice.

"In anger and in an emotional outburst I had said I will leave the country," he told the media. "But if this happens again, I will seriously leave. It is not that I will leave this fame and glory. I enjoy that. I was angry (when I spoke earlier) and I am still angry," he added.

But Kamal Haasan thanked tamil nadu Chief Minister J. Jayalalithaa after she said she was doing her best to resolve the impasse over the movie, which has run into protests from Muslim groups.

He said he was overwhelmed by the support he got all over the country -- from fans, the media and the film industry. "I get carried away when I talk about my fans. I really don't know what I did to deserve this love from my fans. I am touched.

"If I say I am grateful and overwhelmed, then it's an understatement. I am here to thank everyone including the media for all the support I got," Kamal Haasan said.

He added: "I want to thank the film fraternity who stood by me... Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Mahesh Bhatt, Javed (Akhtar), Aamir Khan."

The actor said the delay in the release of his Tamil-Telugu film, which has been banned for 15 days in Tamil Nadu, had led to a loss of Rs.30-60 crore.

Referring to his film's distributor, he said: "But Jeetendra, who is supporting me, said whatever has happened, (take it) as a by Browse to Save">lottery..." Kamal Haasan has begun work on "Vishwaroopam 2".

Karan - you come off making it seem like the whole Muslim interference is a just a myth. Have your news channels covered all the 3.49 million people in Tamil Nadu, I find it hard to believe that there is no objection from any of them. Someone obviously has an issue for this to be stretched this long.

No it is not. u cant say that 1,7 Muslims who lives in TN have supported those few fanatics.it is the same saying when some Shiv Sena Lunatics attacks minority saying that Hindus are behind the attack!!!!! remember there are always few ones who are behind this chaos. Majority of the Muslims in TN are with Kamal Hasaan.

The Muslim population in Tamil Nadu is 3.49 million, representing 5.6% of the state's population of 62.41 million.

Now let's assume, for argument's sake, that the various Muslim groups protesting the release of Vishwaroopam represent about 50% of the Muslims in the state. After all, there could be many Muslims in Tamil Nadu who don't give a damn about Vishwaroopam or any other Kollywood Roopam.[/quote]

Total TN population = 62.41 million

No of Muslims = 3.49 million

Then for the sake of argument, they assume that let's say just half of the Muslims are the ones who have problems with it. So hypothetically, 1.7 million Muslims - out of 3.49 million total Muslims in a state populated by 62.41 million people - are protesting the movie. So it turns out that a tiny fraction of the population is determining what the entire state must or must not do. Nowhere does the article say that ALL of the Muslims are against it and the number they use is a hypothetical number for the sake of illustrating a point. That is all. Do not overreact by just reading a part of the article.

Please try to engage your reading comprehension skills. The 1.7 million count is not of ALL Muslims in TN. It's half. Take a deep breadth and read this part. Slowly.

if you know such movies can make controversy, why to make it ?. If some sort of things were presented for your religion, would you not said the same thing which now muslims said? Whateever religion you're following doesn't give you the right to show whatever you want until you know what exactly happened from A-Z!
