However, there were some strong reactions to this incident. One of the Kannada actors, took to his Twitter account to condemn this act and asked fans not to stoop down to such actions to disrespect celebs.
ನೆನ್ನೆ ಹೊಸಪೇಟೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ದರ್ಶನ್ ಅವರ ಮೇಲೆ ನಡೆದ ಕೃತ್ಯ ನನ್ನ ಮನಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ನೋವುಂಟು ಮಾಡಿದೆ. ಈ ರೀತಿಯ ಅಮಾನವೀಯ ಘಟನೆ ಒಂದೇ ಮನೆಯವರಂತಿರುವ ಎಲ್ಲರಿಗೂ ನೋವುಂಟು ಮಾಡುತ್ತದೆ.
ಮನುಷ್ಯತ್ವ ಮರೆತು ಯಾರೂ ಈ ರೀತಿಯ ಕೃತ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು ನಡೆಸಬಾರದು ಎಂದು ವಿನಂತಿಸುತ್ತೇನೆ
ಅಭಿಮಾನದಿಂದ ಪ್ರೀತಿಯನ್ನು ತೋರಿ; ದ್ವೇಷ ಅಗೌರವವನ್ನಲ್ಲನಿಮ್ಮ

The Kranti actor, Darshan made a very controversial and demeaning statement about Lady Luck during his interview. He said that if a lady luck knocks on one’s door, they should grab and take her to the bedroom, take away her clothes and not give her back, so she does not go away. The statement received a serious backlash from Twitter users, and he was called out to be misogynistic. However, the actor did not release any statement on this.

Misogynist. No respect of whatsoever to women. Shame on him and those who follow him need to introspect what kind of person they are supporting.

It was not really the right way to project your angry emotions, however, the comment made by the actor is definitely unacceptable. Such a demeaning comment on women coming from a celebrity who so many people look up to is really sad. How can someone be so insensitive?
