Actor Vijay Varma has added a sarcastic remark to the discourse surrounding the ongoing protests targeting Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.

Varma's caption expressed his stance, stating, "Happy to see the forces joining together to save our national hero. Protect him at ANY cost." The actor's post garnered attention from several celebrities, including Richa Chadha, Shilpa Rao, and Sunny Hinduja. The protests in question are organized by the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) against Kumar, who is accused of irregularities in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and the removal of eligible voters from electoral lists.
