Ramya had caught Naresh and Pavitra red-handed at a Mysore hotel in July. In a video that went viral on social media, Ramya attacked them with her footwear when they stepped out of a room and headed for the elevator. She had called Pavitra a 'home-breaker'. Naresh later stated that since he had sent a divorce notice to Ramya, she tried to defame him.
A BJP leader, Naresh had also unsuccessfully contested from the Hindupur Lok Sabha seat on saffron party ticket.
Pavitra, who began her career at the age of 16, has been playing supporting roles in Kannada and Telugu films. She has acted in over 150 movies and in a few television serials. She got a divorce from her first husband, who was a software engineer. She later had a live-in relationship with actor Suchendra Prasad but separated in 2018.
