Kamal Haasan praises moves Joju George

Kamal Haasan praises moves Joju George. Kamal Haasan is coming to entertain movie lovers with his film Thug Life. The film directed by Mani Ratnam is releasing on 5 June 2025. Kamal Haasan is promoting the film and while speaking at an event he showered praises on Malayalam actor Joju George leaving him in tears.

He said "I must have done nearly thirty double roles in my career. In 'Michael Madana Kama Rajan', I didn't show much of a difference between my four characters in terms of makeup. But Joju, right from the early days, managed double roles with subtlety. In the film, he is in the same police station playing different brothers. But, you could immediately differentiate both characters."

Kamal added "Joju, you're one of the actors I envy."

Joju George who was moved posted "This is my dream come true. I dreamt of getting big awards, but for me, your wonderful words and appreciation of my acting really made me feel like I've won my Oscar. You are such a big superstar and our universal role model. I'm a huge fan and a good disciple of yours; we always look forward to all your minute moments in acting. So, getting such appreciation from you is my real Oscar (sic),"

He revealed “However, from my own field, very few appreciated my roles and word - I mean, from my coworkers. I struggled to share my movie posters with celebrities; mostly, I was always misunderstood without understanding what I was really doing. Many media people, co-workers hurt me badly,"

He continued “As a human, I'm so satisfied and fulfilled through his words. I was on the epitome of happiness. Like Mani sir and Simbu sir said, all these made my happy. 'Thug Life' is a memorable experience for me and working with the was all was remarkable,"
