Pic courtesy: Twitter/@maiamofficial Madurai: Actor Kamal Haasan on Wednesday launched his political party, naming it "Makkal Needhi Mayyam," and unveiled its flag that symbolises the strength of unity.
"I am not your leader, I am your tool... This gathering is full of leaders," he said moments before announcing the party's name that roughly translates to "Centre for People's Justice."
The party flag was unveiled just before Haasan announced the name of his party with a brief pause heightening the dramatic effect as the huge crowd roared its approval.
Citing a Tamil proverb of 'Oru Soru,' which means a small example of a whole lot, he said the launch was just the first step for 'makkal atchi,' (people's rule).
Clad in a white shirt and black trousers, a smiling Haasan arrived on the stage showing the thumbs up sign to his fans who had arrived in large numbers to announce the party name.
