Prakash Raj faces legal complaint over alleged remarks on Ramayana Actor Prakash Raj is facing legal complaints after Bhanu Prakash, a board member of Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams and a BJP leader from Andhra Pradesh, accused him of making “defamatory and malicious remarks” that allegedly distorted the Ramayana and disrespected Hindu beliefs. According to reports, Bhanu Prakash lodged an official complaint urging authorities to initiate legal proceedings not only against the actor but also against those who may have supported or encouraged the statements. He further called for strict action, claiming such remarks could disturb communal harmony. The controversy stems from an appearance by Prakash Raj at the Kerala Literature Festival in January.

She also emphasised that insults to Hindu deities and Sanatan... #BJP_leader #Andhra_Pradesh #Prakash_Raj #Ramayana #Prakash #Tirumala_Tirupati #Tirupati_Devasthanams #Bhanu_Prakash #Ramayana_Actor #Raj_faces
