Cadres of an Hindu outfit today staged a protest here against actor-politician Kamal Haasan for hosting a reality show that allegedly denigrated Tamil culture.
They shouted slogans against Haasan, Makkal Needhi Maiam founder-president, for hosting "Big Boss," being telecast by Star Vijay television.
A senior police official said 13 HMK workers have been detained in connection with the protest.
HMK leader Rama Ravikumar alleged that the show aimed at "breaking up our cultural values and thrusting Western culture on us."
