Despite being in jail for a murder case, Darshan appears unfazed, sitting comfortably with known rowdies like Wilson Garden Nag, Kulla Seena, and the 11th accused Nagaraj, holding a cigarette and a coffee cup. This has raised many an eyebrow.
In response to the controversy, director Nanda Kishore, elder brother of director Tarun Sudhir, stated that the photo of Darshan smoking in jail is fake.
“This is just a moment captured. What matters is his mental state inside the jail. Couldn’t someone take a picture of him while he is deeply introspective? Couldn’t someone capture him feeling dejected?” he asked.

“This is the era of AI technology. After AI, morphed photos have become more common. Even leaders who are not with us anymore can be featured in films. I believe this photo is fake,” he added.
It is speculated that Darshan could be transferred to Belagavi Hindalga Jail soon.
