Interestingly, the Tamil Nadu government recently more than doubled the salaries of MLAs to Rs 105,000 per month.
Over the last few months, Haasan has been very vocal about the current state of politics in Tamil Nadu.
Earlier this month, Haasan had held talks with Pinarayi Vijayan and had told reporters that they had also discussed the political climate in Tamil Nadu.
He also clarified that his colour is definitely not saffron when asked about his plans for any political affiliation.
On the career front, he awaits the release of Tamil spy thriller Vishwaroopam 2.
