Happy birthday Kamal Haasan: Actor-filmmaker Kamal Haasan turns 64 today. Here are some throwback photos of the Ulaganayagan.

Directed by AR Murugadoss, Sarkar, starring Vijay, Keerthy Suresh, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Yogi Babu and Radha Ravi, has earned Rs 30 crore on Day 1 at the box office.

Vijay Sethupathi and Trisha starrer 96, which hit screens on October 4, has premiered on Sun TV for Deepavali. It’s quite unusual for a successful film, still running in theaters, to be screened on a popular television channel.
