Key Questions Answered

Yashas Surya testified that he has been friends with actor Darshan for ten years after meeting him during the movie Chingari. He also detailed his acting credits and provided an account of the party at the Stony Brook Restaurant.

The Special Public Prosecutor requested that Yashas Surya be considered a hostile witness because there was a discrepancy between his previous 164 statement and his current witness testimony in court.

Actor Chikkanna recorded only half of his statement because he became extremely tense during the proceedings. The court and the SPP offered him reassurance and relaxation time, and he is expected to be summoned to complete his testimony soon.
