Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Kamal Haasan stated, “When someone like Simbu appears on set and others inform him that he’s collaborating with a legendary figure, as the ‘legend,’ it’s my duty to alleviate any pressure he might be feeling.

In a conversation, I reassured him, “Don’t worry about my role as an actor. Just focus on your performance.” He responded, “I appreciate that, sir, and I hope you also understand I’m not just a novice. Make sure you perform to the best of your ability too,” he concluded.

After being questioned regarding the decline of traditional institutions and the transition from old to new generations, the actor made his remarks. Responding to this, Kamal Haasan attributed his confidence to the youthful actors.

Furthermore, Kamal Haasan expressed his thoughts about how the accolades he receives today might appear commonplace in the future. He acknowledged this as a natural progression, stating, “Future generations will be taller because they’ll be standing on my shoulders. And I am content with that. This is what I received from my legends, and now it’s my turn to pass it on.
