He announced that one of the invitees, none other than Hema Malini, would also act with him in his next project.
Jackie replied that he will be happy to share screen space with Kamal and admires his work very much. He spoke in a most humorous manner, and said he will be happy to visit Tamil Nadu for many more such functions. He willingly posed for pictures with VIPs after the function ended. When the Chief Minister spoke, he said that he is impressed how much research Jackie Chan has done because he spoke and wrote like an expert about Tamil films.

Kamal and Jackie Chan were born in the same year and operate on the same wavelength, since they are both truly talented film persons, always looking for different ways to attract audiences.
