“My dear Thalaivas, fill your lungs with pride and cross the line to take the game across to international adulation,” he said. The statement said that Haasan’s association would be a great source of inspiration for the team to put up a great fight in the league.
Busy hosting the Tamil version of Bigg Boss, amid stiff opposition from fringe groups, Haasan will soon resume work on his upcoming multi-lingual comedy Sabash Naidu. The film is a spin-off on Kamal Haasan’s character Balram Naidu from the  Tamil science fiction film Dasavatharam. It is being simultaneously shot in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. The movie also stars Ramya Krishnan, Shruti Haasan and Brahmanandam among others.
Although there were reports saying that the film might be shelved, fresh reports claim that the film has not been shelved and will revive very soon. “Kamal sir is busy with Bigg Boss show. Contrary to some reports, Sabash Naidu has not been shelved and will be revived very soon. It had to be stalled when he had a leg injury followed by some unfortunate events,” a source close to Kamal told IANS.
