The South Indian film industry came to a standstill earlier today when news of a fallout between actors Darshan and Sudeep became public. As students all over said two minutes of prayers for the former best friends, Darshan took to his social media account to lambaste Sudeep, and also to request the media to not speculate about it.
Me & Sudeep aren’t Friends Anymore. We are just Actors working for Kannada Industry. No more speculations please. That’s the end of it.

ನನಗೆ ‘ಮೆಜೆಸ್ಟಿಕ್’ ಸಿಗಲು ಕಾರಣ – ರಾಮಮೂರ್ತಿ, ಪಿ ಎನ್ ಸತ್ಯ ಮತ್ತು ರಮೇಶ್.https://t.co/G8M8uCDnS9 https://t.co/NfYlqVKf3E

ಈ ವೀಡಿಯೋಲಿ ಹೇಳಿರುವ ಪ್ರಕಾರ ಅವಕಾಶ ಸಿಗಲು ಸುದೀಪ್ ತಾವೇ ಸೂಚಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಮಾಡದಿರುವ ಕೆಲಸವನ್ನು ಮಾಡಿದ್ದೀನಿ… https://t.co/SNQYAqI1Pu

ಇದೇ ಮೊದಲ ಬಾರಿಗೆ ಈ ವೀಡಿಯೋ ನೋಡಿದಾಗ ನನ್ನ ಮನಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ನೋವಾದಂತೂ ನಿಜ. ಈ ಹೇಳಿಕೆ ನೀಡಿದ್ದೇಕೆ!? ಸುದೀಪ್ ರವರು ಕ್ಲಾರಿಟಿ ನೀಡಲಿ

Darshan has also made the reason behind the fallout clear. He tweeted: “In a recent interview, Sudeep took credit for me getting the lead role in my first film, Majestic. Why should Sudeep take credit for something he has not done?”
“I saw this interview recently and was pained by it. Sudeep should clarify as to why he made such a statement,” he demanded.
Following speculations that Darshan’s account may have been hacked (the two are said to have one of the best friendships in the Kannada industry), he also set right the rumours.
ಕೆಲ ಚಾನೆಲ್ಸ್ ಹೇಳುವಂತೆ ಯಾರೇನು ಹ್ಯಾಕ್ ಮಾಡಿಲ್ಲ. ಇದು ನನ್ನ ಖಾತೆ, ನನ್ನ ಮಾತುಗಳೇ. ನನ್ನ ಗಮನಕ್ಕೆ ಬಂದ ಸಂಗತಿಗಳನ್ನು ಆಲೋಚಿಸಿಯೇ ನಾನು ಹೇಳಲು ಬಯಸುವ ವೇದಿಕೆ

While Kannada media pondered over the fall out, and meme creators got busy with Darshan’s video, a photographer with Silverscreen offered to do a photoshoot with both the actors along the lines of this social media sensation.
Sudeep and Darshan are yet to respond to our photographer’s kind offer.
