24 May - Amid rumours that he will be playing Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a new movie, "Baahubali" actor Sathyaraj expressed puzzlement over the news.

The actor, who was asked about the rumour recently, stated that the news of him playing Modi is news even to him.

"Nobody has approached me to play PM Modi in the film. People spread random news on social media," he said. "Back in the day, newspapers used to come up with stories like 'Young woman murdered...Is it because of an illicit affair?' Likewise, social media has become a place for such mindless rumours."

It is noted that the actor, known for his role as Kattappa in "Baahubali", has proclaimed himself a Periyarist (follower of the principles of the Indian social reformer Erode Venkatappa Ramasamy aka Periyar), and has said in the past that he would not do any movie that propagates anti-Periyarist ideologies.

Meanwhile, the actor is set to promote his new movie, "Weapon", co-starring Vasanth Ravi and Rajiv Menon.
