Kamal launched the fashion brand ‘House of Khaddar’ during Bigg Boss Tamil 4. The series of the clothing under this brand are designed by Amritha Ram. The brand was launched in an effort to put the hand-woven Khadi materials on the world map. By launching this fashion brand, Kamal aims to popularise the Khadi products for the betterment of lives of the weavers community. (Photo - Instagram / Twitter / Screenshot)

Kamal Haasan is undeniably a true trend setter. Being in the industry for over five decades, he has a good understanding of fashion. He knows what works and what kind of costumes don't.

In a recent interview to a news portal, Kamal Haasan’s costume stylist Amritha Ram revealed that Kamal Haasan 'loves shades of browns, olives, German grey and black.' She also said that he doesn't like too many colours and sticks to his own palettes. (Photo - Instagram / Twitter / Screenshot)

Kamal follows many interesting things in his shows and one among them is the effort to encourage reading habit. In every weekend episode, Kamal recommends interesting books of his choice (under different categories) written by eminent authors. He hopes to increase the reading habit among everyone.

Kamal’s commitment as a host of the Bigg Boss Tamil show can never be questioned by anyone. Over the past five seasons, Kamal hasn’t missed any chance to host even a single episode. He was asked to take rest and get a surgery done for his leg during the final stages of Bigg Boss Tamil 4. Even during that time, he completed the show and only then underwent leg surgery in January 2021. (Photo - Instagram / Twitter / Screenshot)

Kamal Haasan shares his criticism and feedback about the housemates and their performances with a twist. Unlike the Bigg Boss show hosts in other languages, Kamal isn’t very noisy and doesn’t yell at the housemates. But, he puts forth his observations about housemates in the most subtle and effective manner. (Photo - Instagram / Twitter / Screenshot)

Kamal Haasan along with the show's makers took extra efforts to spread awareness about COVID-19 during the season 4 of Bigg Boss Tamil. Even the promo videos were conceptualised with awareness messages related to COVID related precautions. (Photo - Instagram / Twitter / Screenshot)

Kamal seems to have stopped ageing. He looks more and more handsome as the age increases and gives tough competition to the young actors. (Photo - Instagram / Twitter / Screenshot)

Apart from being an actor and host, Kamal is a shrewd politician too. He makes best use of the opportunity to communicate with the masses. As and when opportunities arise, Kamal shares his political points frequently. (Photo - Instagram / Twitter / Screenshot)

Kamal has very good knowledge of Tamil and the literary works in Tamil. In fact, Kamal is also a writer, lyricist and a script writer, to name a few. During his leisure time, he interacts with Tamil philosophers, writers and authors. He strives hard to popularise Tamil through the Bigg Boss Tamil show and other platforms on a regular basis.
