Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai called Chandrashekhar Guruji's murder "heinous". "I have spoken to Police Commissioner Labhu Ram to nab the culprits seen in the video. Police is already on it," he said.

Dr Chandrashekhar Guruji hails from Bagalkot. He graduated as a civil engineer from Basaveshwar Engineer College in Bagalkot.

After completing his engineering in 1988, he worked as a contractor in Mumbai for six years and then left for Singapore to study vaastu shastra (science of architecture in traditional Indian system). He returned to Mumbai and started his first vaastu shastra office in the city.

As the demand for his services increased, he opened offices in Bengaluru, Hubballi and in several other cities in Karnataka.

He had one daughter from his first wife. After the demise of his first wife, Dr Chandrashekar married again. He is survived by a daughter, two brothers and two sisters.

Dr Chandrashekhar is said to have a call centre in Mumbai where hundreds of employees advice people on vaastu.
