The star was soon hurried to the hospital where he was declared dead. Hemanth was just 24 years old and it’s a loss to Sandalwood with a death of a young enthusiastic actor.

Hemanth acted opposite Supritha in Nenapinangala, which was a romantic flick. The film managed to do well at the box office and generated a good fan following for the young actor. His fans now will miss him badly. Dhanuchandra Mavinakunte, director of Nenapinangala said, “He was two years junior to me at Kongadiyappa College in Doddaballapur. He was very enthusiastic on the sets. We need more such youths in Sandalwood; it's sad that such a young life has been lost.”
