Chennai, Jan 17 (IBNS) : Superstar Kamal Hassan, who had announced his plans to undergo a state-wide tour across various districts of Tamil Nadu to understand the grievances of people,  has  confirmed that he will declare the name of his political party on  February 21.

The announcement will be made while commencing the actor's  political journey from his hometown Ramanathapuram.

Haasan has also said that his party's mission statement will also be made public on the same day.

In a statement released at midnight Tuesday, Haasan said, "I have immense gratitude to the people of Tamil Nadu who have given me everything! However, "gratitude" by itself is not adequate, and the love and affection I have for them needs to be manifested in action & in deed."

Haasan said there is true power in finding one's purpose in life.

He said  that his mission is to challenge the status quo that has been plaguing the politics of Tamil Nadu for some time now.

"However, for this to happen, my thoughts and actions need to collectively resonate with the people," he said.
