Prakash Raj
Actor Prakash Raj's mother, Swarnalatha Raj, passed away on Sunday, March 29, 2026, and her funeral took place on Tuesday, March 31, 2026. The videos and pictures of the same were circulated widely on social media, and netizens expressed their condolences.
Amid all this, an X user shared a screenshot of a tweet in which Prakash Raj mocked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his mother Hiraben. The user pointed out the irony in condoling the actor's mother's demise when the actor had disrespected the PM's mother.
The fake tweet read, "Rest in peace Hiraben Modi. ... But you had given birth to a rascala who is spoiling India Just_Asking (sic)."
However, the Singham actor took to X (Twitter) to slam the netizen and revealed that it was actually a fake tweet.
Raj tweeted, "Bigots creating a FAKE tweet in my name and abusing their own leader on AprilFoolsDay .. the joke is on you Fools รยฐรยรยรยรยฐรยรยรยรยฐรยรยรย justasking (sic)."
