The tranquil ambiance of Barkur was shattered by a heart-wrenching tragedy that befell two vibrant souls amidst the serene backdrop of Nagarmutt. Shreesha, at the tender age of 19, and Prashant, aged 35, embarked on what was meant to be a peaceful retreat by the River Sita. Little did they know that fate had a cruel twist awaiting them.

As the grief strikes, casting a somber glow over Barkur, the memories of Shreesha and Prashant linger on, forever ingrained in the collective consciousness of a town united in sorrow.
