Actor-politician Kamal Haasan's comment on "Sanatana dharma" faced backlash from politicians who are calling for ban on his films. Telangana BJP State Secretary Amar Prasad addressed "every Hindu and Sanatani", and said, "We should ignore watching Kamal Haasan movies, even on OTT." For context, Haasan previously said education is the only weapon to "break chains of dictatorship and Sanatana".
