Kamal Haasan is renowned and revered not just for his acting and filmmaking skills but also for his contributions to Indian cinema. Over the decades, he has introduced several cutting-edge technologies and innovative systems to the country’s show business, thereby playing a key role in the evolution of the art form as a whole. At a time when producers are increasingly pushing for a revenue-sharing model while making movies headlined by A-listers, veteran producer H Murali recently made a revelation that underscored why Kamal Haasan is often referred to as a trailblazer. Noting that Kamal has been finding alternate ways to make money from movies rather than charging direct remuneration since the 1990s, Murali recalled an instance when the actor-filmmaker earned three times his salary by acquiring the rights to sell a film in three territories beyond Tamil Nadu.
