Kamal Haasan: French Honour Humbles Me

Chennai: Actor Kamal Haasan is one of the most acclaimed stars in Indian cinema. The actor dedicated the French honour of Chevalier Award to his "admirers and audience". He said that the award humbled him rather than stiffen him with pride.

In an audio message, he said, "On this occasion, I bow before my more deserving forerunners Satyajit Ray and Sivaji Ganesan who made even the common man realise the value of Chevalier award."

"I dedicate this award to my admirers and audience who give me the tenacity of purpose to pursue to this day and moment my arts," he said.
