Asserting that cinema is bigger than any individual and that he remained a student, actor Kamal Haasan on Monday announced his decision to renounce titles such as Ulaga Nayagan (universal hero) bestowed on him and said he may be addressed by his name. “Such accolades, given by the people and recognised by esteemed colleagues and admirers, have always been humbling and I have been genuinely moved by your love in conferring it upon me,” the actor said.He said it was his humble belief that artists must not be elevated above the art.
