Kamal Haasan
Veteran actor Kamal Haasan has joined the film industry's protest against the proposed Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 28 per cent. The actor lashed out at the Centre and sought a lower tax slab for the entertainment industry.
ANI reports that the actor held a press conference on Friday, where he said, "When it comes to the pride of India, it was always regional cinema that stood up for awards in international arenas. Regional cinema contributes to the might of the country. You can't reduce that through taxation."
