Kannada actress Haripriya has denied reports her house was raided by the Central Bureau of Investigation, calling them the "wild imagination of media".

She also said that she is not romantically involved with B.S. Vijayendra, son of former Karnataka chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa.

"I am surprised how such baseless news was scrolled on news channels," Haripriya said.

"There was no CBI raid at my house. I am surprised about the pattern of false news being telecast on many platforms just at the time when my film is ready to release.

"The channels had scrolled that CBI raided my Sadashivnagar residence, but actually I stay in Yashwantpur."

The CBI raided the homes of Yeddyurappa and his family yesterday looking for evidence of their alleged role in a multi-million-rupee mining scam.

The pre-dawn raids in Bengaluru and Shimoga began after a case was filed against Yeddyurappa, his two sons Vijayendra and B.S. Raghavendra, son-in-law Sohan Kumar and mining baron Praveen Chandra on Tuesday.
