Coimbatore: Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) could join the opposition bloc against the ruling BJP at the Centre, if invited, Kamal Hassan said on Tuesday.

”Going by the situation and invitation, the party may consider joining it,” Haasan told reporters here.

He was responding to a question about joining the proposed alliance against the BJP at the Centre.

To another query on stalling of Parliament for the 11th day on Pegasus row, Haasan said, ”What is happening in the Parliament itself is the reaction. This cannot be a surveillance government. You cannot look into my personal life..”

On the Mekedatu dam issue, the actor-politician quipped ”I have played double roles in films. I can identify those who are playing dual roles in politics. Though names are different, both are Bommai (puppets) in the hands of the Centre.”
