Apart from senior actors Kamal Haasan and Khushbu. the only current generation film industry celebrity to have reacted to BJP leader H.Raja's controversial comments about removing Periyar EVR's statue from Tamil Nadu, is young actor and music director G.V.Prakash Kumar. 

The 'Nachiyaar' in his Tamil tweet has said that Periyar is the iron leader who destroyed irrational beliefs and oppression against women. The tweet added that Raja's comment stating that the leader's statue will be removed is highly condemnable. 

It is well know that GVP has been actively participating in movements and protests for Tamils and Tamil people such as anti-NEET protests and pro-Jallikattu protests. 

பெண்ணடிமையை சாதியை மூட நம்பிக்கைகளை உடைத்த இரும்பு மனிதர் பெரியார்.! அவரின்
சிலைகள் அப்புறப்படுத்தபடும் என்று சொன்னது வன்மையான கண்டனத்துக்குரியது..!
