Actor turned politician Kamal Haasan says he is enjoying his new role in politics. Kamal Haasan was speaking at the 16th Hindustan Times Leadership Summit. “My party (Makkal Needhi Maiam) is still setting its goals. We are still starting out--we have the best people advising us,” he added. He said that people told him not to get into politics, but he did not understand that. “Some of my greatest heroes have been politicians,” he reasoned.
