Nadigar Sangam to celebrate Chevalier to Kamal

Kamal Haasan has been appointed Chevalier de l’Ordre des Arts Arts et Lettres (Knight in the National Order Arts and Letters) by the Minister of Culture and Communication, France.

The distinction, which is yet another laurel for the actor, is in recognition of his high level of artistic excellence and his distinguished career achievements.

The award will be conferred on Kamal Haasan at a special ceremony later.

The entire Tamil film industry burst into celebrations at this announcement. In fact, the South Indian Artistes Association (SIAA), better known as the Nadigar Sangam, has not only congratulated the actor but also announced that it intends to hold a huge function to celebrate the honour bestowed on the actor, considered to be one of India’s finest.
