Popular actor and president of Nadigar Sangam have stated that cinema is very close to his heart and he would never leave films.

Addressing a media conference on Tuesday against the State government's decision to come up with a Titanium dioxide plant in the State, Sarath Kumar said, “ On 29 August I will spell out the name of the political party to be floated by me and the party's ideology too”.

Asked whether he would say bye to acting, Sarath Kumar said, “I never will leave cinema. It is my passion and my first love. Without cinema, I can't live”.

“What ever I have achieved today, it is because of the identity that I gained acting in films. How can I leave films. Even after I become an active politician, I would continue to act in films”, he said.
