India, Feb. 17 -- Where is the Dhruva Sarja of films like Addhuri , Bahaddur and Bharjari ? That's the question that netizens had after the Action Prince decided to give the crowd at the Hampi Utsava a sample of a dialogue from his upcoming film Criminal. The line that Dhruva says to the heroine Parvathy (Rachita Ram) roughly translates to 'no matter how much you may hate me, Parvathy, I will marry you, because that is how much I love you. And if my love is betrayed, I swear on Goddess Yellavva that I will kill you'. Dhruva's line is also peppered with some expletives, which, given the film's north Karnataka setting are said to be commonplace.
