‘Thalaivan Irukkindraan’ is a political film that Kamal Haasan wanted to do years back on a big scale. He planned it as a bilingual in Tamil and Hindi. While the Tamil verison was supposed to have him in the lead, the Hindi part titled as ‘Amar Hain’ was planned with Saif Ali Khan. However, due to various reasons, the project didn’t materialize.
More details about ‘Thalaivan Irukkindraan’ is expected to be officially announced soon.
