Kamal Haasan is in the midst of yet another controversy. The actor’s recent commentary about the current political scenario in Tamil Nadu has not endeared himself to certain political parties. As a result, he has been threatened with tax audits by a member of the ruling party, and has also been asked to ‘mind his own business’ in no uncertain terms.
Meanwhile, Kamal took to social media to tweet his thoughts on the issue.
அமையாது அலைபவர்க்கும் அமைந்த என் தோழர்க்கும், விரைவில் ஒரு விளி கேட்கும். கேட்டு அமைதி காப்பீர். உண்மை வெயிலில் காயும் நேற்றைய மழைக்காளான்

As journalists set about deciphering the cryptic tweets, we asked a few fans for their opinion.
Veera, a former Kamal Haasan fan association member, said:
“Whatever he has written, it is going to be good for the society only. Why should we break our heads over it? Kamal sir’s thoughts are like our mother’s advice. You don’t realise its importance and meaning till too late.”
Actor Prasanna, on the other hand, seemed to think that Kamal’s tweets meant that the actor was ready to join politics.
Naanga ready aandavare??

He wasn’t alone. A fan tried his best to decipher the tweets, and concluded that there was some political connect.

Another fan made a rather useful kid-version of Kamal’s tweet.

Some even speculated that Kamal was referring to his recent appointment as Brand Ambassador of Kabaddi Team, Tamil Thalaivas.
