What is the story of Kamal Haasan?
There is a tradition in the Telugu cinema industry to honour actors with the ticket of the first show of the film. In this function, producer Ashwini Dutt gave Big B Amitabh Bachchan a ticket of the film ‘Kalki 2898 AD’. Big B gave this ticket to Kamal Haasan. Kamal Haasan was very happy to get the ticket of the film from Big B. Narrating an anecdote of that time, he said that the film Sholay, released in 1975, created history. He also said that he has worked as a technician in this film. Recalling this time, he said that he had to wait for three weeks to watch the film because Sholay tickets were not available. Perhaps four-five decades ago, this moment came in my life, when I had to wait so long to watch Sholay. I think there will be many fans who will have to wait to watch this film like me. I never thought that I would get a ticket for the first day first show from Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. I was a film technician then. Today I am an actor. Not much has changed.
Whelan wanted to play the role
Kamal Haasan plays the role of Wheelan in it. I told Amitji backstage that I always wanted to play the role of Wheelan. Because Wheelan gets to do all the good work in the film. So the hero sings cheesy romantic songs and waits for the heroine. I thought that was Wheelan’s role. It would be fun. But director Nag Ashwin wanted to do something different. And I am like a sadhu with bad thoughts in the film, Kamal Haasan said smiling.
