Signalling what could be curtains on a long and illustrious film career, actor Kamal Haasan has indicated winding up his cinema stint to be an "effective" politician.
The founder of the Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) has indicated that the sequel to his 1996 blockbuster 'Indian,'--'Indian-2-- could "probably" be his last film.
"I will have to wind up to be effective as a politician...you have to dedicate time totally (for politics).
But I will have my production company continuing in the field. Somebody else will run it," the 64-year-old actor-politician told reporters at Kizhakkambalam near Kochi Monday.
Besides Indian 2, Haasan is involved in the trilingual 'Sabash Naidu' directed by him and another untitled movie, and may not sign any ventures after that, sources close to him said in Chennai.
The films are slated for release over the next two years, even as his party plans to contest next year's Lok Sabha polls.
Haasan, however, said his production company Raajkamal Films, would continue producing movies.
He was in Kizhakkambalam to inaugurate a housing project for the poor completed by the 'Twenty20 Kizhakkambalam initiative.'
