Kamal Haasan is a veteran Tamil film actor who has also built a substantial body of work in Malayalam, Hindi, Kannada, and Telugu cinema. Born on November 7, 1954, in Paramakudi, Ramanathapuram district, Tamil Nadu, he now lives in Chennai. Beyond acting, he’s worn nearly every hat the industry offers: producer, director, screenwriter, dialogue writer, playback singer, and lyricist. His journey started early, as a child artist in the 1959 film Kalathur Kannamma. Few Indian actors can claim what he has: a career spanning more than 50 years, a shelf full of major awards, and a standing as one of Tamil cinema’s most respected and enduring figures. Across that career, he’s appeared in over 200 films, several of them landmark productions in Indian cinema.
