Music composer turned actor GV Prakash, known to be vocal about many issues and who also took part in the Jallikattu protest, has now taken a dig on the IPL match.
The spectators are not allowed to carry any banners or even cell phones to the stadium and Prakash took to his social media handle and asked hard-hitting questions to those who are planning to go to the match. “Will you surrender to suppression and go and enjoy the match? Or will you ignore a game which prevents you from expressing your thoughts freely? Or will you break the barriers and prove loudly to the world who a Tamilian really is?
Lakshmi Ramakrishnan also requested fans to boycott IPL matches in Chennai. “We have a bigger issue to tackle today, I support peaceful protest, I boycott IPL...When tax payment is centralised, natural resources have to be centralised. Rivers should be allowed to take their course,” she posted.
Recently, many had requested IPL management not to conduct any cricket matches in Chennai this year until the issues faced by the state are solved and the film industry had also taken a stand against IPL matches being held in Chennai at this time.
