Sandalwood
actor
Darshan
is
a
nature
lover
and
admirer.
He
has
always
been
vocal
about
issues
concerning
the
environment.
He
is
a
proud
owner
of
several
domestic
animals
and

his
bit
in

the
wildlife
too.
The
Yajamana
actor
loves
capturing
these
wild
beings
on
his
camera.
Recently,
he
had
exhibited
his
photography
collection
in
Mysore.
And
now,

has
sold
one
of
his
wildlife
pictures
to
a
Kannada
actor,
for
a
whopping
price!
The
amount
spent
on
it
will
surprise
you.
Sandalwood's
comedy
actor
Chikanna
is
the
one
who
has
bought
Darshan's
photograph.
It
is
a
picture
of
a
wild
elephant
captured
by
Darshan
from
a
close
distance.
And,
he's
paid
Rs
1
lakh
for
this
piece
of
art.

shared
a
picture
of
his
and
Chikanna
on

for
doing
his
bit
in

the
wildlife.

me
for
Rs
1
Lakh.
I
thank
him
from

my
