A routine evening walk turned alarming for Aditya, a 26-year-old IT professional, in Valasaravakkam, Chennai, when he was allegedly scratched by a pet dog owned by renowned music composer Harris Jayaraj. The incident occurred while Aditya was walking with his dog along Kamarajar Street. The composer’s dog was reportedly under the control of a watchman at the time. Local residents intervened quickly, ensuring Aditya received immediate medical attention at a nearby private hospital. Following the incident, the Valasaravakkam police registered a case under negligence laws and initiated an inquiry. This incident is part of a troubling trend, as another dog bite case was reported in Zam Bazaar, Triplicane, where a 50-year-old woman was also attacked. Harris Jayaraj, known for his contributions to Tamil cinema, has received numerous accolades for his work in the Indian music industry.
