BHUBANESWAR: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Monday received a surprise guest as Tamil Superstar and Makkal Needhi Maiam party founder-president Kamal Haasan called on Patnaik at the Naveen Niwas.
Haasan said he met the Chief Minister as a fan of his and also to seek his advice on politics.

later he achieved a lot more than those who were aware of politics.
“ Patnaikji has been delivering good new schemes for people, some of which are pioneering ones at the all-India level. His disaster management has been very good. Since there is a lot to learn from him, I met him and got some advice,” he said.
