Last week, Kamal Haasan launched his clothing line, 'KH House of Khaddar,' in association with costume designer Amritha Ram. The thought behind the brand is to create a brand that encourages khadi as a textile.

Kamal Haasan, in a statement, said, "Chicago is a special city with a rich history. The desi culture here speaks for itself. We needed the right city to showcase our brand. The population here understands both fragrance and clothing more than anywhere else in North America."

Kamal Haasan is currently hosting 'Bigg Boss Tamil Season 5', which is being aired on Vijay Television.
