In his post, Prithviraj Sukumaran wrote, “My first memories of this gorgeous little group of islands are from a school excursion when I was in my 6th grade. I remember being in awe of the turquoise waters and the crystal-clear lagoons”. He then mentioned how he shot for his films Anarkali and Lucifer in Lakshadweep.

He then revealed that he has been getting messages from plenty of islanders to voice his opinion about the ongoing situation. Prithviraj Sukumaran said that he does not want to talk about the information that is already available online. Through his post he wanted people to know that whoever from the islands messaged him are not happy with the new laws and reforms that have been put into place. The South superstar wrote, “I strongly believe that any law, reform or amendment should never be for the land, but for the people of the land”.
