'Challenging' star Darshan did not attend the launch of 'Agraja' in which he is playing a special role. The entire muhurath and pooja was held in presence of many film industry dignitaries including veteran directors like SV Rajendra Singh Babu and Kashinath. It was explained by the film's producer that Darshan was recouping from illness. However, Darshan has a completely different story to tell.
"I came from Switzerland on Tuesday night at 12.00 P.M. Because of jet lag and shooting back pain, I could not sleep till 4.30 P.M I took some pain killers and was able to sleep from 4.30 and got up only in the afternoon. Since my family members knew about the severe backpain problem, they did not disturb my sleep. Even my assistant Mallikarjuna did not try to disturb the sleep. When I got up I telephoned the people connected to Agraja and explained the position. I could not do anything as I had gone against the doctor's advise to take up Switzerland flight to participate in the shooting of the two song sequences," said Darshan.
