A senior leader of a Hindu outfit, the Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha (ABHM), on Friday slammed veteran Tamil actor Kamal Haasan for his “Hindu terror” remarks and said people like him should be “shot dead”.

Referring to the statement made by Mr. Haasan on Thursday in a column for a weekly magazine, ABHM leader Pt. Ashok Sharma said “these people accuse the followers of Hinduism of Hindu terror only to push their own biased communal agenda”.

“There is no other way to handle people like Kamal Haasan but to either hang them or shoot them dead,” he said. Members of the outfit have also announced the boycott of all Kamal Haasan films.
