(MENAFN- AsiaNet News) Kannada star Darshan Thoogudeepa, aka 'D Boss', was arrested just two days after the second part of the Devil-The Hero shooting began. The actor, his rumoured girlfriend Pavithra Gowda and 11 others were arrested on charges of murder of Renukaswamy.
Darshan, an actor, has been making news since being detained in connection with a murder case on Tuesday morning.
He, his reported lover Pavithra Gowda, and 11 others were detained on murder accusations against Renuka Swamy.
The producer and director of the film Devil-The Hero was taken aback after his arrest since he had already been paid a large sum for the project.
According to sources, the actor received Rs 22 crore for the film. The teaser that was posted previously generated a lot of interest among fans.
Yet just 25 days of shooting have been finished, and the majority of the segments still need to be filmed. During an action scene on the first shoot day.

His arrest took place only two days after the second part of production began, shocking the director and producers.
Darshan was arrested for murder yesterday at the shooting site. According to director Prakash Veer, the film was originally scheduled for December 25.
