Kamal Haasan on his 40-year friendship with Rajinikanth despite politics – “He and I are competitors and friends at the same time”

Tamil superstar Kamal Haasan is gearing up for the release of Vikram starring Fahadh Faasil and Vijay Sethupathi. For the same, the actor attended the audio and trailer launch where he touched upon various topics. At the event, he spoke about his 40-year long friendship with Rajinikanth despite having different political inclination.

According to Indian Express, Kamal Haasan said, “Red Giant is associated with this film. People wondered, ‘What is this sir?’ Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin is my friend beyond politics. How’s that possible? I ask, ‘Why not?’ Rajini and I are competitors and friends at the same time. You keep switching sides and shouting at each other. Not us. We know. When we both were 25, we predicted how this journey of ours should end. And we are living accordingly with the respect that it deserves. There is still no change to it. Even today, as he was not able to make it to the event, he felt the urgency to talk to me (about it). That’s the kind of friendship between us.”

Vikram is written and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. The film also stars Vijay Sethupathi, Fahadh Faasil and Suriya. It is set to release in theatres on June 3.
