Not entire crowd will get converted into votes, says Kamal Haasan on turnout in Vijay's rallies
Chennai, Makkal Needhi Maiam founder leader Kamal Haasan has said that just because a leader happens to attract huge crowds does not mean that the entire turnout will get converted into votes and this norm applies to all including him and actor-politician Vijay, who heads the fledgling Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam.
Haasan, when asked on the massive turnout seen in actor-politician Vijay's rallies, and the criticism that the "entire crowds" will not get converted into votes, told reporters: "It is for sure, it will not get converted into votes, it is applicable to all leaders."
When asked again if this norm is applicable to TVK chief Vijay, he said: "When it is applicable to all leaders, how can we exclude Vijay? It is applicable to me and all the leaders in India, you have attracted crowd but that will not get converted into votes."
Asked what advice he would give to Vijay who has entered politics, he said: "Go on the right path, proceed with courage and do good for the people and this is my appeal to all leaders."
