Kamal Haasan, Subramanian Swamy.

The war of words between actor Kamal Haasan and BJP leader Subramanian Swamy shows no sign of abating with both sides hitting out at each other on Twitter over recent political developments in Tamil Nadu. Replying to a question from a user who asked him if the BJP would welcome Kamal to lead the crisis-hit state, Swamy said he would oppose any move by Haasan to venture into the politics. “I don’t know about BJP but I will oppose this boneless wonder and pompous idiot called Kamal Haasan,” he said.

“Kamal Haasan is a pompous idiot because he deliberately falsely twists that I said all Tamils are Porkis & opposed his entry into politics,” the BJP leader further said.

In response, Kamal said “I have one bone of contention. It’s good enough. Su. Sa called Tamils porikis. Glad I won’t have to oppose him. People will.”
