Samanvi, the 6-year-old daughter of Kannada TV actress Amrutha Naidu and Nannamma celebrity fame, was killed in a horrific accident on January 13.

The incident happened at 4:30 p.m., when the mother-daughter duo was apparently coming home after shopping in their two-wheeler.

They were apparently hit by a lorry in Bengaluru’s Konankunte intersection. While Samanvi died on the spot her mother Amrutha was severely injured.

Samanvi’s body is still being held in the KIMS hospital for further formalities, according to the latest reports. Amrutha is also reportedly receiving therapy at the same facility.

A case against the lorry driver has been filed at the Kumarswamy Layout police station. The lorry driver has already been apprehended, and further investigations are underway.
