Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy CM DK Shivakumar met with Karthik Mahesh, the winner of season 10 of Bigg Boss Kannada on Wednesday. The Chief Minister wished Karthik well and prosperity in the film industry while he was at home. He later also met DK Shivakumar. President of the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce Ba Ma Harish accompanied him. What has intrigued fans is that Karthik took along his winning trophy to meet Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar.
It seems that neither DK Shivakumar nor Siddaramaiah knew who he was. In a video of the meeting that has gone viral, DK Shivakumar was heard asking him what his name was. It is unknown how Karthik got access to meeting the CM and his deputy without them not knowing his identity.

This incident has become fodder for the internet to mock him. Karthik is also being ridiculed because a lot of people are wondering why he brought his Bigg Boss trophy to the meeting. The purpose behind the meeting remains unknown. “Why did you go there? They won’t recognise your talent,” a user wrote. A different internet user said, “CM didn’t recognise him, what insult, Karthik you should visit the people who respect you not these persons.” Yet another user wrote, ” What an insult haha our CM is not even looking at you”.
Karthik Mahesh was the winner of the just concluded reality show Bigg Boss Kannada 10. Sangeetha Sringeri placed third and Drone Prathap was deemed the runner-up. Both the trophy and a Rs 50 lakh cash prize were given to Karthik. As part of the grand prize package, he also got an electric scooter and a Maruti Brezza. Drone Prathap won an electric scooter and a cash award of Rs 10 lakh. Sangeetha, on the other hand, received a monetary reward of Rs 7 lakh.
