According to sources, Darshan has been imprisoned since June 11. He has recently wanted home-cooked meals throughout his prison sentence. This is primarily because the Kannada actor alleges that the jail food is creating serious health problems, such as weight loss and diarrhoea, which have been identified as food poisoning by prison physicians.

According to Section 30 of the Karnataka Prisons Act of 1963, undertrial detainees are entitled to sufficient food, clothes, and other essentials, subject to prison officials' scrutiny. The jail guards rebuffed his pleas for home-cooked food, citing the requirement for a court order.

Darshan has also submitted a petition, claiming that he has been wrongfully implicated in the case based on claims made by co-accused persons, and requesting legal aid with his bail application.

According to the police inquiry, Renukaswamy died of shock and haemorrhage as a result of many traumatic injuries.

Darshan was arrested when the murder case gained public attention. Pavithra Gowda was also identified as the primary instigator and has been charged in the case.
