Kamal Haasan, currently in the U.S. preparing for his next movie, missed the recent developments post-Amaran’s release. He participated in the initial promotional events and recorded a few video interviews before flying to the U.S., even missing Amaran's audio release event.

The production team also held a special screening for Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin and Deputy Chief Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin. After watching the movie, both leaders spoke with Kamal over the phone, sharing their praise for the film.

Amaran, based on the life of Major Mukund Varadarajan, who died in a 2014 anti-terror operation in Jammu and Kashmir, has garnered glowing reviews and is dominating the box office nationwide. Sai Pallavi stars as the female lead.
