B.R. Kumar, HMK secretary did not divulge much on the 'celebration' planned, only commented that the Valentine’s Day celebrations ought to be stalled. He called it a cultural assassination and said that this was a deliberate attempt by the West "only to keep our youngsters in a perennial state of trance."

Hindu Munnani leader Rama Gopalan has also joined the anti-Valentine's Day stance and took the opportunity to urge spiritual leaders like Jaggi Vasudev, Shri Shri Ravishankar and Sankaracharya to start a campaign against these western concepts and create an awareness among the public.

The lovers in the state seem to be a determined lot and are ready to face hurdles of any sort to express their love on this important day.
