Kannada cinema has been in the headlines for some time after the Renuka Swamy murder case in which actor Darshan and others have been accused. Now, a big revelation has come to light in this case. As per the India Today report, after the murder, three of the accused went to a Reliance Trends shop in RR Nagar in Bengaluru to replace their clothes.
