Kamal Haasan, the icon of Tamil cinema, is still, at the age of 71, a master of wealth, influence, and achievement. He made his debut as a child in ‘Kalathur Kannamma’ and today has traveled to ‘Thug Life.‘ Kamal Haasan, who has established himself in many fields, including acting, television shows, and business ventures, has an estimated net worth of Rs. 450 crore, making him one of the richest actors in Indian cinema.
Homes that reflect Kamal Haasan’s global footprint
Kamal Haasan’s old house in Alwarpet, Chennai, is the heart of his family. According to Asianet, he also owns a Rs 92 crore ‘Sky Villa’ on Boat Club Road overlooking the Adyar River. He also owns seven plots of land across Chennai, houses in Mangalore and Bangalore, and a townhouse in London worth £2.5 lakh (about Rs. 2.6 crore). He jokingly said that he bought the house thinking it was a movie location.
A garage that roars with class and nostalgia
Kamal Haasan’s garage reveals his exquisite taste. He owns a number of luxury cars, ranging from a Lexus LX 570 worth Rs. 2.82 crore to a BMW 730 LD worth Rs. 1.35 crore. Even their number plates were inspired by his cult film ‘Nayagan.’ Sometimes he would test drive the cars on the sets, which would make the producers nervous. Kamal has produced many big films through ‘Raj Kamal Films International.’ He is said to have received a salary of Rs. 150 crore for ‘Indian 2.’ He also launched a fashion brand to bring global recognition to Indian handloom weavers.
‘KH 237’ preparations begin
On the movie front, Kamal Haasan’s next has been tentatively titled ‘KH 237,’ and the film marks the directorial debut of the stunt duo Anbarivu. Reported to be a high-octane action drama, the upcoming film will have music composed by Jakes Bejoy, while the cinematography is to be handled by Sunil KS.
