Lord Ganesha idols inspired by KGF and Pushpa have been slammed by many people saying that their sentiments have been hurt as these idols are mocking the god. Some of them even pointed out that these characters are gangsters and goons in the movies. "Y'all are okay to see Ganpati as a smuggler and a criminal?" asked a Twitter user.

Responding to Prakash Raj's tweet about Ganesha Idols, a man tweeted, "What you people think is that a joke or a funny thing to do, no you can not do such kind of act, He is The Lord Ganesha".

Recently, Prakash Raj was called the male version of actress Swara Bhasker on Twitter.

This happened after he reshared a tweet that read, "How could they put him (Shah Rukh) and his family go through such harassment and trauma when he has been for decades giving the country love and joy!"

Responding to this, a Twitter user said, "prakacha has tweeted, whether it is visible to you or not that tweet is not worth of a cent also, he is the male version of @ReallySwara."

Prakash Raj responded to the troll and said he was rather honoured being called so.
