The Hindu reported that one of Darshan’s fans was arrested on Tuesday for allegedly threatening producer Umapathy over comments he made about the actor. The fan was released on bail after apologizing. On Wednesday, Darshan's wife, Vijayalakshmi Darshan, issued a statement asking fans to stay calm.

Vijayalakshmi shared a piece of fan art showing a group of people forming a chain to reach the top of a hill where a flag says 'D Boss'. Along with it, she wrote, “*Call for all our Celebrities* You all know how much Darshan loves you. It is sad that we are in this situation today and that we have to stay at a distance from him. I have spoken to him in detail about the situation outside and it has touched his heart. He has urged all his celebrities to stay calm and focus on doing good deeds and he is sure that he will be part of your prayers.”

She mentioned that she trusts the judicial system and believes that the truth will prevail, and added, “We have immense faith in the judicial system of our nation and am sure there will be brighter days ahead. I firmly believe that those attempting to harm Darshan through words/action during his absence, will be taken care of by Mother Chamundeshwari. Request your support in these hard times. Your being calm will be our biggest strength. This too shall pass. Truth will Triumph.”
