As India awaits the historic landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the Moon’s south pole with excitement and pride, a tweet from Prakash Raj has ignited a heated controversy on social media. On Sunday, Prakash Raj shared a picture on his Twitter profile featuring a cartoon depicting a man in a vest and lungi pouring tea on the Moon’s surface.
This seemingly innocent post has sparked a flurry of reactions, with many accusing the actor of insensitivity and derogatory humor.
The tweet appeared to be a satirical take on India’s Moon Mission Chandrayaan-3, which did not sit well with many netizens. They viewed the post as an attempt to belittle a significant scientific achievement and questioned the actor’s intent behind such a tweet.
Criticisms ranged from accusations of disrespecting the scientific community to questioning the appropriateness of making light of a matter of national pride.
In response to the criticism, Prakash Raj shared another tweet yesterday, attempting to clarify his intent behind the original post.
However, this explanation did little to quell the controversy, as many users continued expressing discontent with the original tweet.
Prakash Raj contested as an independent candidate for the Bengaluru Central Lok Sabha constituency in the 2019 Indian general election. Although he faced defeat in the elections, his active engagement in political and social issues has kept him in the spotlight.
