Radical Leftist and DMK stooge actor Prakash Raj has once again stirred controversy by holding Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi responsible for the ongoing violence in Palestine. According to Raj, the crisis is not solely the result of Israeli aggression but is also fueled by continued support from the United States and the silence of global leaders, including Modi.
His remarks were made during a large-scale rally organized by various Islamist and Dravidianist groups in Chennai on 19 September 2025. The protest, aimed at condemning Israel’s military actions in Gaza, took place on Langs Garden Road in Pudupet and drew a crowd of over 5,000 participants. Notable figures in attendance included Thirumavalavan, the head of the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi, M.H. Jawahirullah, president of the Manithaneya Makkal Katchi, Dehlan Baqavi of the Socialist Democratic Party of India, Thirumurugan Gandhi, the coordinator of the May 17 Movement, and Dravidianist DMK stooge film personalities like Sathyaraj, Ameer and Vetrimaran.
While addressing the rally, Dravidianist actor Prakash Raj said, “Why are you artists coming here? If speaking against an injustice is politics, then we will speak politics. There is a poem, this war will end, all the leaders will shake hands and leave, but the truth is that there is a mother waiting for her son, a woman waiting for her husband, children waiting for their father. We do not know who sold this nation and land. But we know who paid the price for it. This is what will happen if we remain silent. There is an answer for them who ask why do artist like you talk like this. A poet who says that if I do not want politics in my poetry, I want to hear the sound of birds. If I want to hear the sound of birds, the sound of warplanes must stop. The rain is coming. Finally, I will say a word and speak. What I, all of us, have to say to this world is that even if it is a wound to our individual body, our silence will heal it. But if I remain silent and do nothing for a wounded nation, it will be more of an injury to a country and humanity. Therefore, before we die… we should not die. Let us fight. This voice will be heard. This is not only Israel’s fault but also America’s which supports it, and also Modi, who remains silent, is also responsible. This is not only Israel’s fault, but also the responsibility of the United States, which supports it, and Modi, who remains silent. Everyone who chooses to stay silent is also responsible. “
