Kamal Haasan receives a death threat.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

Kamal Haasan has found himself in hot water after his comment on Sanatana Dharma, and after calls for a boycott grew, he has now received a death threat. Small-screen actor Ravichandran has threatened to kill Haasan over his comments against Sanatana Dharma.<\/p>\n

It was during the 15-year celebration of Tamil star Suriya\u2019s NGO, Agaram Foundation that Kamal Haasan<\/a> criticised the central government\u2019s National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET), saying it has crushed the dreams of many MBBS aspirants and stating that it is an \u201cill outcome of Sanatana Dharma.” After this comment, Haasan faced severe backlash and boycott calls, and has now received a death threat.<\/p>\n

In a YouTube interview, Ravichandran, a television actor, called Haasan a \u201cnaive politician” and went as far as to say he \u201cwould slit his throat” for making anti-Sanatan comments. This has raised serious concerns for Kamal Haasan and his fans.<\/p>\n

What Kamal Haasan said about Sanatana Dharma<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kamal, who is now a Rajya Sabha MP and founder of Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM), stated, \u201cIn this war, only education has the power to change the nation. It\u2019s the only weapon that can break the chains of dictatorship and Sanatana. Do not take any other weapon in your hands. You can\u2019t win with any other weapon. Because you will be defeated by majoritarianism; ignorant majoritarians will defeat you.”<\/p>\n

Aftermath of the comment<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Tamil Nadu unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) recently called for a boycott of films featuring actor-politician Kamal Haasan, following his recent remarks on Sanatana Dharma.<\/p>\n

BJP state secretary Amar Prasad Reddy shared a video message on social media, saying, \u201cEarlier it was Udhayanidhi Stalin, and now it is Kamal Haasan who wants to destroy Sanatana Dharma. Let\u2019s teach them a lesson.”<\/p>\n

He appealed to Hindus to avoid watching Haasan\u2019s movies, even on OTT platforms, stating, \u201cIf we do this, they will stop making irresponsible comments that hurt the sentiments of millions of Hindus.”<\/p>\n

Senior BJP leader Tamilisai Soundararajan also criticised Haasan, accusing him of insulting Hindu beliefs and condemning his statement.<\/p>\n
