During this time, he fell in love with a female student, who was familiar with another student named Bharat. Upon learning of Shivayya's intentions, Bharat chose to give him a warning and called him to the college on June 25. When Shivayya reached the college, Bharat along with 25 other students attacked him in front of the e-commerce building in the campus. The victim was knocked unconscious after being hit with belts and boulders.
When the video went viral on social media, the matter was brought to the attention of the local police officials. According to the police, the victim's condition is stable now and is recovering and they registered an FIR. The accused have been arrested and remanded to custody. It was clarified that Shivayya was not a student at Arts College.
