Television starlet Dimple was on Monday remanded to 14 days in judicial custody by a city court for her role in the acid attack on fellow actor and one-time romantic interest Sridhar Varma.
The 23-year-old television starlet, along with her assistant Mani, was arrested on Sunday following a confession by a person called Nagaraju, that she had instructed him to throw 'acid' on Sridhar Varma.
She had then stage-managed
an attack on herself to mislead the police.
Another accused in the case, Prabhakar, is at large.
Dimple bore a grudge against Sridhar as she felt that he had "cheated" her by going back on his words after promising to marry her, and also harmed her career prospects by not letting her accept many good acting offers which came her way.
Dimple has been shifted to Chanchalguda Jail.
