China Humiliates Ursula, Kallas With 'Bus Ride'; No Xi, No Officials, No Ceremony; Then THIS Happens
In an interview, veteran producer-director Suneel Darshan described his professional equation with actor Sunny Deol as the 'darkest chapter' of his career. Darshan revealed the collaboration began with promise—starting with films like 'Inteqam' and 'Lootere'—but later turned 'nightmarish,' involving alleged emotional manipulation. He claims Sunny took money for a project that never materialised and described working with him as 'like indulging a little child.' Despite the trauma, Darshan maintained respect for the Deol family and refused to blame Dharmendra. While he appreciated working with Akshay Kumar, Darshan said the unresolved dispute with Sunny still weighs on him—and that he believes in divine justice.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the ex-top cop described some fan associations as 'lumpen' and 'goonda' elements and called for strict police action. 'Some film hero fans associations are nothing but lumpen, goonda elements who are unemployed. I feel sorry for these young boys used as trolls by so-called heroes who portray a thin line between villain and hero,' he wrote. Read his full post here: He further added that these trolls are 'basically cowards who use filthy language more against women on social media under the garb of anonymity.' The former officer praised Ramya for initiating legal action, saying, 'It's good that @divyaspandana has set the law into motion.' He expressed hope that Bengaluru Police Commissioner Seemanth Kumar Singh would use technology and fearless authority to identify 'at least 30 to 40 goons who have used abusive, misogynistic language.' 'It will send a strong message. This is not Freedom of Speech,' he said, urging Karnataka Home Minister Dr G Parameshwara not to turn a blind eye to the 'brazen abuse of a woman on social media.' 'The whip has to be cracked,' he concluded. (Also Read: Actor Ramya lodges complaint after 'threats' from Darshan fans) The comments follow a wave of online abuse against Ramya after she spoke out on the Renukaswamy murder case, in which Kannada actor Darshan is a prime accused. Ramya had earlier stated that Renukaswamy 'will get justice' and announced her decision to take legal action against those sending her obscene and threatening messages online. On Monday, Ramya filed an official complaint with the Bengaluru City Police Commissioner, stating she was subjected to threats and vulgar abuse on social media by fans of Darshan. The complaint includes screenshots of the offensive messages and urges police to initiate stringent legal proceedings. 'This is not just about me. I was told I should have been murdered. I received rape threats, vulgar and deeply disturbing messages. That's when I realised someone had to act,' Ramya told reporters after submitting the complaint. 'It shows just how degraded parts of our society have become,' she added. The incident has sparked widespread public debate on fan culture, misogyny, and online abuse, prompting calls for stronger digital accountability and swift law enforcement action.

Karnataka Women's Commission takes suo motu note of online abuse against Ramya, directs police action
BENGALURU: Taking up a suo motu case in connection with the abusive messages allegedly sent by actor Darshan's fans to actress Ramya, the Karnataka State Commission for Women (KSCW) on Monday wrote to Bengaluru City Police Commissioner Seemant Kumar Singh, directing him to take action against those posting derogatory messages against the former MP. KSCW Chairperson Dr Nagalakshmi Choudhary urged the commissioner to get all abusive content directed at Ramya removed from social media. 'The commission has taken up a suo motu case. Stringent action will be taken against those posting derogatory messages about women on social media... such miscreants can be imprisoned for three to seven years... Darshan's fans are making dirty comments and a person identified as Somu Nayaka even filed a complaint with the commission, but we have not registered the case because Ramya is a celebrity. The jurisdictional police and CEN police have been instructed to look into the matter,' she told media. Meanwhile, Film Industry for Rights and Equality (FIRE) has extended support to Ramya by writing to Home Minister G Parameshwara, demanding action against the vulgar social media abuse. 'FIRE stands in solidarity with actor Ramya in her fight against the misogynistic and obscene trolling on social media. Freedom of expression and the press, as enshrined in Article 19 of the Indian Constitution, is the cornerstone of our democracy. While healthy debate and differing opinions are vital in a democratic society, such discourse must be conducted with civility and respect,' the letter stated. 'The targeted, hateful online harassment of Ramya is a direct violation of these democratic principles and reflects a disturbing pattern of online misogyny... FIRE strongly urges the Karnataka Home ministry and cybercrime authorities to take immediate and appropriate action,' the forum demanded. Several actors have also come out in support of Ramya. Actor Pratham alleged he was threatened at knife-point by Darshan's fans near a temple in Doddaballapura recently, and he informed the Bengaluru Rural SP. 'I saw Rakshak Bullet (Kannada Bigg Boss contestant) and went to greet him. Miscreants sitting near Rakshak started abusing me for talking about Darshan. They pulled out a knife and tried to stab me. I respect Darshan. I want him to advise his fans to stop targeting upcoming actors. Those who handle his fan pages should be dealt with by police,' he added.
