Kiccha Sudeep condemns man for attacking actor Darshan with slipper: ‘Rebellion isn't always an answer’

Kannada actor Darshan has been embroiled in a controversy over the last few days over his controversial remarks about Goddess Luck. During the promotion of his upcoming film ‘Kranti’ at Hosapete, Karnataka, a fan hurled a slipper at him. Now, Kichcha Sudeep has penned a long note on Twitter saying that 'rebellion isn't always an answer'

‘Our land, language and culture is all about love & respect. Every problem has a solution, and every solution has multiple ways of being solved. Each and every individual deserves to be treated with dignity, and any problem can be solved in a manner that is pleasant and calm,’ he wrote.

He also questioned the behaviour of the crowd at the event and said, ‘The video I saw was very disturbing. There were many others and the leading lady of the film standing there as well who were just a part of the event and had nothing to do with the rage that was prevailing at that time. Humiliating them publicly brings about questions as to are we Kannadigas known for these unjustified reactions. Is this kind of outburst even an option?’

He further added, ‘As far as Darshan is concerned, I agree there may have been a situation that isn't so pleasant between him and Puneeth fans. But is this reaction Puneeth himself would have appreciated and supported? An answer to this is something that probably each of his beloved fans know.’

Concluding his note, Sudeep apologised if he has hurt anyone’s feelings with his words and requested everyone to spread love and respect.

For the unversed, in a video interview, Darshan said, ‘Goddess of Luck doesn't knock on the door always. When she knocks, grab her, drag her into your bedroom and strip her naked. If you give her clothes, she will go out.’

After the video surfaced online, many called him out for his sexist and misogynistic comments.
