Ramanathapuram (TN): Hours before launching his political party, veteran actor Kamal Haasan today visited the residence of former President APJ Abdul Kalam here, and interacted with his family members.
Haasan visited Kalam House at Rameswaram in the district, and was warmly received by the family members of the former President. The actor briefly interacted with Kalam’s non-agenarian brother Mohammed Muthumeera Lebbai Maraikkayar while being flanked by other close relatives of the former President. The actor slightly tweaked his schedule for the day, cancelling his visit to a school, after the local administration reportedly denied him permission to visit it.
