Actor Prakash Raj exercised his voting right at a polling station in Bengaluru, Karnataka, during the ongoing Lok Sabha Elections’ second phase. Following his vote, he emphasized the importance of selecting a candidate one believes in.
“My vote stands for my right, for my power to choose who represents me, who will be my voice in the Parliament… It is very important to choose a candidate whom you believe in, and I have voted for the candidate I believe in and to the manifesto they have brought in and for the change, because of the hatred and divisive politics we have seen in the last decade,” he expressed to reporters.
The 59-year-old actor has contributed to various language films, including Telugu, Kannada, Hindi, Tamil, and more, with notable works like Ghilli, Singham, Akashamantha, and Kannathil Mutthamithal.
Karnataka is voting for 14 seats in the second phase of Lok Sabha elections today, with the remaining 14 scheduled for May 7. Vote counting is slated for June 4.
