According to the police, the incident happened around 2 am near Little Flower School on the Ring Road in front of Yash’s house. Earlier, Yash had told that he would not be celebrating his birthday this year as he was mourning the death of Rebel Star Ambareesh.

There was no one at Yash’s house except for his mother and despite it being actor’s birthday, there were no fans too in front of the house, the police said. Ravi felt dejected after he could not meet the actor. He got kerosene and doused himself with it and set himself on fire, a senior police officer said.

Passerby rushed to his help and put off the fire. He had sustained severe burn injuries. He was shifted to Victoria Hospital where doctors said he had sustained 80% burns. He died in the wee hours of Tuesday.
