The influence of movies and web series on society has become a topic of heated debate in recent years. While many argue that the impact can be positive, promoting creativity and awareness, there is also a growing concern about the negative effects, particularly when graphic and violent content inspires real-life crimes.

A shocking incident that recently came to light involves a man named Gurumurthi from Meerpet, who allegedly murdered his wife and attempted to cover up the crime in a gruesome manner. The horrifying details of the crime have left human rights organizations and the public deeply disturbed.

According to reports, the police apprehended Gurumurthi shortly after the incident. During the investigation, he allegedly confessed that his actions were inspired by the Malayalam movie Sookshmadarshini. The film, which was recently dubbed in Telugu and released on OTT platforms, features an intense and chilling murder scene where a girl's body is submerged in chemicals.

Disturbingly, Gurumurthi reportedly tried to replicate this fictional act. Allegations suggest that he dismembered his wife's body and attempted to destroy the evidence by cooking the parts in a pressure cooker. While official confirmation of this claim is still pending, discussions about the gruesome incident have already spread across social media.

This case is not an isolated incident. Over the years, there have been numerous reports of violent crimes being inspired by scenes depicted in movies and web series. The portrayal of graphic violence, often showcased under the guise of realism, has raised questions about the ethical responsibilities of filmmakers and writers.

The incident has reignited discussions about the potential consequences of glorifying violence in entertainment.
