Actor Prakash Raj, known for his controversial statements, has condemned a false quote attributed to him on X (formerly Twitter) and announced plans for legal action.
The viral post claimed he said, "In Indonesia, Muslims are 90 percent, Hindus are 2 percent. There are 11,000 temples. I have never heard of riots because there is no RSS there."
Reacting on X, Prakash Raj clarified, "THIS IS NOT MY STATEMENT don’t put your statements in my name."
He demanded accountability from the source of the post, "@MeghUpdates.. or Who ever has created this.. own it up."
Raj told The New Indian Express he will take legal action against those spreading the misinformation, accusing right-wing groups of fabricating statements to portray him as "anti-Hindu."
He stated, "I am contacting my lawyers, and we will push for legal action against this person on Tuesday. This is a common strategy. Right-wingers fabricate such statements... The narrative is to project me as someone who is against Hindus. I am against the BJP, Modi and Amit Shah." Raj frequently faces accusations of being "anti-Hindu" and "anti-national" due to his outspoken political views.
