Raghava Lawrence recently hit the headlines for his comment on Ulaganayagan and Makkal Needhi Maiam Chief Dr Kamal Haasan. At the audio launch of Superstar Rajinikanth’s Darbar, Raghava Lawrence had reportedly stated that he, along with his bunch of friends, during his childhood, without any knowledge had hit cowdung on the posters of Kamal Haasan’s films. This created a controversy among the Kamal fans and the general crowd who didn’t expect these words to come out from Lawrence.

Later that night itself, the Kanchana 3 director clarified on the controversy that his speech was misunderstood by a large section of media and people and added that he never meant to be offensive. Going a step further, Lawrence has now met Kamal Haasan in person at his residence and the pictures from their meeting have been officially released.

In his official statement, Lawrence stated, “I was recently criticised for my comment about Kamal Haasan sir at a recent event. My statement was wrongly understood by the media and the people and I have already clarified my stand on it. I met Makkal Needhi Maiam’s Chief, Kamal Haasan sir at his house and cleared the air with him in person. He was very humble and accepted my clarification. He also took good care of me and enquired about my projects. I would like to thank him heartily for his hospitality.” So, it looks like this meeting and Lawrence’s clarification will put an end to all the controversies.
