Veteran actor Kamal Haasan agreeing to this took to his X handle to give a shoutout to the child for her achievement.

In the caption the veteran actor wrote, “Dear Ms. Treesha Thoshar, my loudest applause goes to you. You’ve beaten my record, as I was already six when I got my first award! Way to go madam. Keep working on your incredible talent. My appreciation to your elders in the house.”

The veteran actor was awarded with the Rashtrapati Award (President’s gold medal) when he was just 6 years old for his excellent performance in Kalathur Kannamma (1960)
