Veteran actor Kamal Haasan has issued an apology for supporting Narendra Modi government's demonetization policy in a hurry.

The actor has issued an apology in a column for Tamil magazine Vikatan, reported the News Minute.

Haasan's comment comes over a month after he said he will not hesitate to join hands with any party, including the BJP if it is for administration' and doesn't hinder basic tenets that include a fight against corruption.

“I owe it to the people to apologise for supporting the plan in a hurry,” said Haasan in the article titled - A big apology.

 

On November 9, 2016, the actor had praised the movie in a tweet saying, "Salute Mr. Modi. This move has to be celebrated across political party lines. Most importantly by earnest taxpayers."

The actor who was also criticised for his stance said that he had supported the move as he thought it was going to get rid of black money. 

However, he further stated that he was filled with doubt as the government did not have a strong response to the criticism made by several economists.

Kamal Haasan also stated that if the PM accepts his mistake without being adamant, then one more Salaam is waiting for him. "Gandhi was able to do it, today also it is possible,” he added.

In September, amid mounting speculation that he would take a political plunge, the actor hosted Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at the office-cum-residence in Alwarpe and showered praise on him.
