As India celebrates its 77th
Republic Day today, actor
Parvathy Thiruvothu has penned a thought-provoking message. On Monday, January 26, the State-award-winning actor took to her Instagram profile and shared a message that cuts through the noise of our fractured times.
The ‘Ullozhukku’ actor didn’t write down a celebratory message, as most do, but instead provided a reminder of what a true republic actually demands of us.
Parvathy Thiruvothu's powerful Republic Day 2026 message
“Now more than ever, we are called to remember what being a true republic nation means. To remember the power we hold as people of our nation. To stay aware, informed, and fight propaganda and misinformation; let’s unite as one to ensure each and everyone deserves a dignified, respectful life in our country,” Parvathy Thiruvothu said in her note.
Parvathy Thiruvothu also reminded us that, as individuals, it is important to reflect on and work on our core values, and to shed hatred and indoctrination wherever they've taken root in us. “On this Republic Day, I urge you to reflect and work on your core values- and be rid of anything that comes from a place of hatred and indoctrination,” she said.
The actor further noted that the true power lies in each citizen, and we can turn things around.
“As a people, each and every individual holds immense power to turn things around. Wield that power for the good of your fellow citizens, to ensure your government delivers safety and security to all. Remember to lead from a place of love!” she said.
