War of words continues between Kamal Haasan and Subramanian Swamy
The war of words between Rajya Sabha MP of the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) Subramanian Swamy and actor Kamal Haasan became evident during the Jallikattu fiasco that happened recently. The ongoing friction between and actor and the former union cabinet minister doesn't seem to die and this latest exchange of digs stand proof of their long-standing twitter war.
Someone, recently asked Swamy whether his party BJP would ever consider the contention of Haasan's candidature.
What formed the basis of this question- whether Haasan's vocal nature about the political chaos in Tamil Nadu or his long-standing cold war with Swamy remains debatable.
Needless to say, Swamy had some unfavourable things to say about the actor.
@satishrajaram5 : I don't know about BJP but I will oppose this boneless wonder and pompous idiot called Kamal Hasan

Unsurprisingly, Haasan too retorted to Swami's statements with his own comments.

Kamal Haasan's undertone insinuation of the sentiments of Tamils, by pointing out swami's use of the term "porukkis" (meaning scoundrels) is not something to be missed.
Director of D16, Karthik Naren decided to participate in this particular exchange in support of Kamal Haasan and called Swami an Indian Trump. (The nature of this parallel drawn too remains debtable)
@Swamy39 pls don't use complex words like 'pompous' cos a simple 'Hello' from Kamal sir will take years for you to understand.Indian trump!
