- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,May 31 2018]
Young Sandalwood director Santosh Shetty Kateel yesterday met with a tragic fate. He died while doing a recce at Ermayi Falls in Ujire, Belthangady. He was there with a team of four to find out if the location is apt for his upcoming film, whose shooting is almost done.
Sporting a designer costume that resembled a robot's, Santosh proceeded towards a fatal area despite a stern warning by a local person. The talented youngster, whose debut was a critically-acclaimed children's film, didn't listen to the warning at his own risk. He is believed to have slipped and drowned in no time, shocking his fellow companions.
A case has been slapped against his companions under IPC Section 304 (a). The police are investigating the death.
