Auotobiography of Kamal - Needed or not?

Every time I watch or read an interview of our legend Kamal, I am amazed by his knowledge on almost everything(he speaks about or he is involved in), his prowess at expressing thoughts and a lot of things I (and a lot others) have not known about him.
Especially after reading his recent interview for Inbox1305, this thought came in my mind so strong. An autobiography of Kamal Hassan is very much needed.
There are so many great things about our legend, which we didn't and don't know.One eg, isI have always wondered on his singing ability (esp while listening to songs like Sundari Neeyum of MMKR) , only while watching his interview on Kalaignar TV titled "Dasavathaaram Oru Avathaaram", i came to know that he was trained on classical music by the legendary Bala Murali Krishna.
Like the way he says that somebody should release the screenplays of (the legendary filmmakers like) KB's films in the form of books so that those great works dont go unabsorbed and also that future gen will benefit from that, I guess Kamal should start working on an Autobiography so that these wonderful things about him and his life are engraved, cherished and wondered by a wider audience .
If not an autobiography, since he has got a lot to experiment, learn, perceive and achieve in his life, he should probably write a book on his experiences at least.
PS: The intention of this post is to know what fellow Kamalians think about it and then most importantly, how to properly channelize our request to the right place.
