what happened
The incident took place in Hosapet, Karnataka, when popular Kannada actor Darshan Thoogudeepa was hit with a slipper during the promotions of his film Kranti. A miscreant threw a slipper at the actor when Rachita Ram, the actress of the film, was giving her speech. However, to appease the furious fans, the actor said that it was not the criminal’s fault and there was no problem.
Several fans of Puneeth Rajkumar came together to launch a song from the film. The incident took place on Sunday evening when an unidentified person threw a slipper at Darshan. A video of this incident went viral where the actor was seen standing on the stage when a slipper hit his shoulder. After the attack, Darshan was immediately surrounded by police officials.
Why did this happen?
This sudden turn of events was the result of Darshan’s sensitive remarks about the Goddess of Fortune. In a recent interview, she said that when Lady Luck knocks on your door, you should grab it and strip in your bedroom. If people give him clothes, he will leave immediately.
