ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳು ಆತ್ಮಹತ್ಯೆ ಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವಷ್ಟು ಹೇಡಿಯಲ್ಲ. ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳಿಗೆ ಕನ್ನಡ ಮತ್ತು ತೆಲುಗಿನ ಕಿರುತೆರೆ ನಟನೊಬ್ಬ ಪರಿಚಯವಿದ್ದ. ಮದುವೆಯಾಗುವಂತೆ ಪದೇ ಪದೇ ಕಿರುಕುಳ ನಿಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದ. ಈ ವಿಚಾರವನ್ನು ನನ್ನ ಬಳಿ ಹೇಳಿಕೊಂಡಿದ್ದಳು. ನಮಗೆ ಈ ಬಣ್ಣದ ಲೋಕವೇ ಬೇಡ ಬಂದು ಬಿಡಮ್ಮ ಎಂದೇ ಹೇಳಿದ್ದೆವು. ಆದರೆ ಮಗಳು ಏನಾದರೂ ಸಾಧನೆ ಮಾಡಬೇಕೆಂಬ ಪಣ ತೊಟ್ಟಿದ್ದಳು. ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳಿಗೆ ಪದೇ ಪದೇ ಆ ಕಿರುತೆರೆ ನಟ ಕಿರುಕುಳ ನೀಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದು, ಇಂದು ಬೆಳಗ್ಗೆ ಸಹ ಆತ ಮನೆಗೆ ಬಂದು ಕಿರುಕುಳ ನೀಡಿರುವ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆಯಿದೆ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದಲೇ ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳು ಸಾಯುವ ತೀರ್ಮಾನ ಕೈಗೊಂಡಿದ್ದಾಳೆ. ಳಿಗೆ ಪದೇ ಪದೇ ಆ ಕಿರುತೆರೆ ನಟ ಕಿರುಕುಳ ನೀಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದು, ಇಂದು ಬೆಳಗ್ಗೆ ಸಹ ಆತ ಮನೆಗೆ ಬಂದು ಕಿರುಕುಳ ನೀಡಿರುವ ಸಾಧ್ಯತೆಯಿದೆ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದಲೇ ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳು ಸಾಯುವ ತೀರ್ಮಾನ ಕೈಗೊಂಡಿದ್ದಾಳೆ. ಕಿರುತೆರೆ ನಟ ಹಾಗೂ ನನ್ನ ಮಗಳ ಆಪ್ತ ಸಹಾಯಕನಾಗಿದ್ದ ಮಹೇಶ್ನನ್ನು ವಿಚಾರಣೆಗೆ ಒಳಪಡಿಸಿ ಸೂಕ್ತ ಕಾನೂನು ಕ್ರಮ ಕೈಗೊಳ್ಳಬೇಕು ಎಂದು ಸವಿ ಮಾದಪ್ಪ ಅವರು ನೀಡಿರುವ ದೂರಿನಲ್ಲಿ ತಿಳಿಸಿದ್ದಾರೆ. ಆದರೆ ಈ ಕಿರುತೆರೆ ನಟನ ಹೆಸರನ್ನು ಸದ್ಯಕ್ಕೆ ಪೊಲೀಸರು ಬಹಿರಂಗಪಡಿಸಿಲ್ಲ. ಮೃತ ಸೌಜನ್ಯಾ ಅವರ ಮರಣೋತ್ತರ ಪರೀಕ್ಷೆ ರಾಜರಾಜೇಶ್ವರಿನಗರ ಆಸ್ಪತ್ರೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಶುಕ್ರವಾರ ನಡೆಯಲಿದ್ದು, ಆ ಬಳಿಕ ಪೋಷಕರಿಗೆ ಒಪ್ಪಿಸಲಾಗುತ್ತದೆ. ಮೃತಳ ಅಂತ್ಯ ಸಂಸ್ಕಾರವಾದ ಬಳಿಕ ಸವಿ ಮಾದಪ್ಪ ದೂರನ್ನು ಆಧರಿಸಿ ಸೌಜನ್ಯಗೆ ಕಿರುಕುಳ ನೀಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾನೆ ಎನ್ನಲಾದ ಕಿರುತೆರೆ ನಟನನ್ನು ಕುಂಬಳಗೋಡು ಪೊಲೀಸರು ವಿಚಾರಣೆಗೆ ಒಳಪಡಿಸಲಿದ್ದಾರೆ.”
