GV Prakash on trolling
Prakash issued a statement on his X handle on Wednesday, May 15 responding to the speculations around his separation from Saindhavi. His statement in Tamil can be roughly translated to, “It's disheartening to see people debating about the union or separation of two people without proper understanding. It is unacceptable to pass comments on personal lives of people just because they're celebrities. Have Tamil people's honour come down so much that they do not realise how their comments might hurt people?"

I'm writing this to convey that your comments, whatever the intentions may be, are hurting. Please respect the emotions of everyone. My thanks to everyone for their support," added Prakash.
