Anand, who made his debut with ‘Nannadeya Haadu’ recently, had married his girlfriend M S Bharani last year.
According to Bharani, their marriage ran into rough weather as Anand began taking interest in another girl Ramya.
Anand also reportedly attempted to poison her but she was hospitalised and recovered, she alleged in her complaint.
H T Ramesh, ACP (Banashankari sub-division) told Deccan Herald that the actor, a one-time video jockey with the Kannada music channel U2, had also allegedly demanded Rs 50 lakh from his wife. A case of dowry harassment has been registered.
