Actors venturing into politics is not something new as we have seen many leading stars and actors getting into the field of politics to do welfare for the people. Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth were the latest names to step into politics.
On this new year, actor Prakash Raj has revealed that he would be entering politics and contest in the upcoming 2019 Lok Sabha elections, as an independent candidate.
He took to his Twitter space to make this massive announcement. "HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE..a new beginning .. more responsibility.. with UR support I will be contesting in the coming parliament elections as an INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE. Details of the constituency soon. Ab ki baar Janatha ki SARKAR #citizensvoice #justasking in parliament too..", tweeted Prakash Raj.
It can be noted that Prakash Raj had made criticisms against the ruling Government in regular intervals, and this important move from him has come as an interesting surprise.
