Kamal Haasan on issue of imposition of language: ‘Without imposition, we will learn'
Where does Kamal Haasan stand on the issue of imposition of Hindi in the south? 'I stand with Punjab. I stand with Karnataka. I stand with Andhra,' is his quick reply. The pan-India superstar's latest film Thug Life, the 234th in a 65-year career, released in theatres this week amid controversy over his comment that Kannada was born out of Tamil. He refused to apologise and the film did not release in Karnataka. 'I am the actor from 'Ek Duuje Ke Liye'…,' Haasan told PTI during a recent visit to the news agency's headquarters, referring to his 1981 hit Hindi film about a Tamil boy and his romance with his Hindi speaking neighbour. 'Without imposition, we will learn. Don't impose, because this is ultimately education and we must take the shortest route to education… and not put hurdles in its way,' the actor said. The ruling DMK in his home state Tamil Nadu has long opposed the three-language policy introduced under the National Education Policy (NEP). The party has repeatedly accused the BJP-led NDA government of attempting to 'impose Hindi', a charge the Centre has denied. Stressing that the imposition of a particular language only hampers the learning process, the 70-year-old said, 'I stand with Punjab. I stand with Karnataka. I stand with Andhra. This is not only place which is resenting imposition.' The Indian cinema stalwart, hugely popular in the south as well as in the north with films such as Nayakan, Thevar Magan, Sadma, Saagar and Chachi 420 that bridged language divides, said if you are truly looking at 'international breakthrough' you must learn one language. He said, 'And English seems to be fair enough. You can do Spanish also, or Chinese. But I think the most practical thing where the shortest route to that is that we have 350 years of English education, slowly but steadily. So when you suddenly replace it, it's all over again. You make unnecessarily many people illiterate, especially in Tamil Nadu. You suddenly force all through Hindi and you tell them that you will not get your job beyond the Vindhyas, then you start wondering, what about the promises? What about my language? Am I not one of the 22 (official languages)? These are the questions that are coming.' Tamil is one of the 22 official languages of the country, apart from Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Kashmiri, Konkani, Malayalam, Manipuri, Marathi, Nepali, Oriya, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Sindhi, Telugu, Urdu, Bodo, Santhali, Maithili and Dogri.

His banner Raajkamal Films International filed a plea before the Karnataka High Court seeking protection for the release of the film, which sees him reuniting with Mani Ratnam after Nayakan in 1987. After a rap from the court over the remark, the producers said Thug Life will not be released in Karnataka.

Kim So Hyun reveals if Park Bo Gum is rude in real life, opens up about her ‘lethargic, unmotivated' image
Kim So Hyun and Park Bo Gum's onscreen reunion after a decade as co-stars is currently the most talked-about K-drama moment. The two are headlining Prime Video's Good Boy, alongside Lee Sang Yi, Tae Won Seok, Park Chul Min, and more. In the Shim Na Yeon directorial, Kim So Hyun plays Ji Hana, a former Olympic shooting gold medalist, who also happens to be the love interest of Yoon Dong Jo, played by Bo Gum. The actor recently sat down for a fun chat with Elle Korea, where she opened up about working with her co-stars, spilled on her social media habits, and shared how her advice game has seriously leveled up over the years. Also read: Park Bo Gum made a request to Kim So Hyun years ago: 'Remember this when the time comes'; the story behind Good Boy casting During the chat, So Hyun was asked to differentiate between Park Bo Gum's on-screen and off-screen behaviour. She was also pressed about the widely circulated rumour that he's rude on set. Despite the popular belief that he's one of the kindest actors in the K-drama scene, a few past incidents, and a recent when life gives you tangerines situation, where workers claimed they were treated rudely (without naming anyone), sparked some gossip. To that, Kim So Hyun said flat out: he's very kind. 'Is he a little bit rude?' So Hyun said with a laugh, adding that she gets asked questions like that all the time. 'But in this case, it's the opposite.' While she described Yoon Dong Joo as a bit frustrating, always hovering around her and the reason she ends up slapping her own forehead over and over, real-life Bo Gum, she said, is like a puppy. 'He's like a puppy. Full of love, affection, and cuteness.' Earlier, at a press conference, So Hyun also admitted that Bo Gum was the only reason she said yes to Good Boy. 'As soon as I heard that he was cast, I knew I had to be part of this project.' And this isn't the first time Bo Gum's been showered with praise by his female co-stars. His Tangerines co-lead IU once called him a walking green flag. Also read: Good Boy first Impression: Don't be fooled by 'Pouty' Park Bo Gum, he's delivering career-best punches Despite being active in the industry for years, So Hyun has only taken up a handful of roles. And most of the time, she gets criticised for having a 'boring' personality. When asked about it, Kim laughed it off. 'People say I look tired or bored, but I'm just shy. I don't react with big expressions, so even when I'm enjoying something, it doesn't show.' In the same breath, she also revealed the nickname she's earned on set. 'Everyone calls me 'grandma.' They said I looked extra tired today, but I'm usually just observing things with a warm smile, that's my vibe.' Apart from acting, So Hyun is also known for her huge mutual list on Instagram. She's currently following over 6,000 accounts, and a lot of those are fan pages. The actor revealed, back when she was still a teenager and Instagram was just taking off, she would often reply to DMs from fans and even give out advice. 'I didn't really know much about relationships,' she laughed, 'but I used to give a lot of career advice.' Now that she's in her mid-20s, Kim says she can finally offer relationship advice too. 'Don't date someone with a temper. Find someone kind, warm, and soft-hearted… like a loaf of bread.' But this wholesome approach of being concerned for everyone came with some setbacks. At one point, her account was even suspended for following too many fans too fast. These days, she's more careful. 'I still follow back sometimes,' she shared, 'but I check the first DM they ever sent me. If I feel like they've been a genuine fan for a while, I follow them back.'

Amid Kannada language row, Kamal Haasan takes bold stance on Hindi imposition in south: 'I stand with Karnataka, Andhra'
He may be embroiled in a controversy regarding his comments on a language, but Kamal Haasan still won't shy away from sharing his two bits on the issue of the imposition of Hindi in the south. The actor spoke about Hindi imposition while promoting his new film, Thug Life, and made it clear where he stands.

Marred by the controversy and negative reviews, Thug Life has had a slow start at the box office. The mega film has earned just ₹30 crore net in India in its first three days.
