Well, this is not the first time that Prakash Raj has asked questions about Hindi. He also sharply criticized the country’s prime minister and the right-wing establishment. For this reason, he has become a target of right-wing organizations. At the same time, he had made an offensive comment on the image coming from the moon on a microblogging site during the landing, which resulted in him being trolled frequently. However, he later issued a clarification on this too.
