Kannada actor Niranjan Kumar , known for his roles in the Odeya, Badava Rascal and Head Bush, was reportedly injured following a late-night altercation at a bar in Bengaluru, leading to political police investigation.

The incident is said to have taken place after the actor stopped by at a bar following a visit to friend and fellow actor Yashas Suhas.
