Gangavathi, Dec 8: Kottur Swamiji of Virakta Kalmutt in Gangavathi town, Koppal district, has been reportedly caught in a sex scandal.

Tension prevailed for sometime at Virakta Kalmutt in Gangavathi on Thursday after a video purportedly showing Kottur Swami with a woman in a hotel room was streamed by news channels.

Kottur Swami switched off his mobile phone and went to an undisclosed location after the news spread in the town.

Hundreds of devotees rushed to the Kalmutt, expressed anger and sought the seer not to return to the mutt.

There was commotion for a while as one group termed the video as a conspiracy against the seer, while another group accused him of tarnishing the temple's tradition and image.

Community elders intervened, pacified both the factions and controlled the situation.

Meanwhile, the seer's car driver Mallayya Swamy has lodged a complaint with the local police claiming that he has threat to his life from the seer.

Mallayya Swamy is believed to have videographed the episode and leaked it to media. It is not known when the video was shot, but it was shot at room number 303 at a hotel near SDM College of Medical Sciences and Hospital, Suttur, on the outskirts of Dharwad.

In the video, a woman gets up and covers her upper body with a towel after two men enter inside. It also shows a man, believed to be Kottur Swami, sitting on the bed.

Mangaluru: The first-of-its kind Beach Zumba event organized by Veekshitha Arasa on January 26th at Panambur Beach, Mangaluru attracted huge crowd and entertained the masses. Thousands of people who visited the beach last Sunday evening witnessed and danced along with the talented Zumba instructors from Bengaluru and Mangaluru. The show lasted for almost two hours.

The programme was organized by Veekshitha Arasa in association with Panambur Beach Tourism with the cooperation of Panambur Police and sponsorship of AJ Hospital & Research Centre, APD Foundation and SS Arrangers & Caterers.

Panambur Beach Tourism CEO Yatish Baikampady, APD Foundation Trustee Abdullah Rehman and Santhosh Kumar from SS Arrangers and others flagged off the event by releasing saffron, white and green balloons (the colours of Indian tricolor) to mark the nation’s Republic Day. Panambur beach police officials too participated in the inauguration. Veekshitha Arasa’s husband Rohan Lobo, Veekshitha’s parents Bhaskar Arasa and Geetha B Arasa too joined in.

This was done with the message ‘Let the love for health and fitness fly high among the citizens much like the soaring spirit of patriotism’. Speaking on the occasion, Veekshitha said that it was her dream to conduct a Zumba event in the city. “This is my small attempt at promoting fitness among the citizens of Mangaluru. There should be more such events,” she said.

Meenal Dubey, Ashwitha Shetty, Vishal Rai, Aishwarya, Namratha Shekar, Shruthi Keerthiraj, Vinayak Acharya, Kavitha Manish and Urmi were some of the enthusiastic Zumba instructors who performed with Veekshitha.

RJ Nayana and Saravanan Govindaswamy compered the event.
