Kamal Haasan
is one of the strong supporters of Jallikattu. When he heard that a politician addressed the youths as Porukkis, he turned red. Kamal said, “Yes we are Porukkis. We know what to pick and where to pick. We are not picking up anything in Delhi.” Kamal is also angry on the Lathi charge by the police today at Marina and many other parts of Tamilnadu. Kamal said that the students, who were protesting in a harmless way should not have been lathi charged. He tweeted, “This is a mistake. Aggressive police action on students passive resistance will not bear good results. அலங்காரநல்லூரை அலங்கோலமாக்கிய வன்முறை தமிழக அறபோராட்டச் சரித்திரத்தில் பெரிய ரத்தக்கரை.”
