Today, on eve of the death anniversary of Gandhi, Kamal Haasan has tweeted "The lowest & meanest form of criticism in a reformed world is assasination. One of the most important ambassador of world peace and my personal torchbearer was shot dead by an allegedly patriotic Indian on this day. India remembers Gandhiji so that the history is not repeated."
