Sujatha Bhat Confesses – “I have no daughter, I filed a false complaint. Considering my age, spare me from punishment” – Exclusive Interview

In an exclusive interview with Insightrush Media, Sujatha Bhat admitted that her shocking claim about a missing daughter named Ananya Bhat was entirely fabricated. She revealed there was no such daughter and confessed she was misled by others and angered by an ancestral property dispute. Sujatha has now apologized to the public and devotees of Dharmasthala, requesting forgiveness and leniency considering her age.

Bengaluru – The woman who shook the entire nation by saying “My daughter Ananya Bhat went missing after visiting Dharmasthala, give me her remains” and protesting on the steps of Dharmasthala Police Station, Sujatha Bhat, has now taken a shocking U-turn.

Speaking exclusively to Insightrush Media, Sujatha Bhat said:
“I don’t even have a daughter. I am admitting my mistake. In this case, since I gave false information, I request the law to consider my age and grant me exemption from punishment.”


She added:

  • I never gave any statement to SIT

  • I never demanded remains anywhere

  • Girish Mattannavar forced me to lie. He told me to ask for ashes in the name of Sanatana Dharma

  • Because of pressure, I lied. Now, everywhere my reputation is being questioned. I admit it was my mistake. Please leave me alone

Property Dispute Behind False Claims

Sujatha revealed that her ancestral property was given to Dharmasthala without her consent by her brother. Out of anger, she fabricated false allegations against Dharmasthala.

Public Apology


She has now apologized to the people, Dharmasthala, and devotees, admitting she misused people’s faith and trust.

Interview Summary

  • The story of Ananya Bhat as her daughter was completely false. No such daughter ever existed

  • Some individuals including Girish Mattannavar and Jayant T. provoked her into lying

  • Fake photos and fabricated stories were released

  • The property issue was the real reason behind her false claims

  • She never personally insulted Dharmasthala, Lord Manjunatha, or Veerendra Heggade

  • She denied any monetary greed, saying it was purely anger over property inheritance

Why She Targeted Dharmasthala
Sujatha questioned:

  • Why should a Hindu temple be run under Jain tradition?

  • Why was my ancestral property donated to the temple trust without my permission?

She admitted these frustrations made her build the false Ananya Bhat story as an act of revenge.

Final Words

“I have no desire for money. I am self-reliant, I have never begged. I live with self-respect. I made this mistake out of anger due to property issues, not for financial gain. I seek forgiveness from everyone.”
