Aascar Ravichandran, the producer of Viswaroopam 2` has said that, in the black money world of cinema, Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan is the only hero who receives all payments through cheques - whether it's crores or a few hundreds of rupees.

If this is true, he is the true 'Bharateeyudu' we should all emulate and encourage. Of course, we have always known Kamal as a dedicated artist who doesn't give two hoots for wealth. All that he thinks about is whether the actor/creative man in him is satisfied or not, money be damned. This is why he has produced huge movies even at the cost of mortgaging his property.

The wish of millions of Kamal Haasan fans is for the magnum opus Viswaroopam 2` to release and Aascar Ravi`s statement here signals that an early 2017 release could be a possibility.
