Puneet Rajkumar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Puneet Rajkumar is son of legendary kannada cine star Dr. Rajkumar. He was considered a child prodigy in acting. He has acted in 12 films as a child artist.He has also won the National Award for the film "Bettada Hoovu". He once again entered the Kannada film industry as a hero or lead actor. His first two films "Appu" and "Abhi" did wonders at the box-office. Married to Ashwini Revanath, they have a baby girl named Dale.

No exaggeration but there is dedication and genuineness in Puneeth that is hard to ignore. Appu, Abhi, Veera Kannadiga and now Mourya… 2003 and 04 was caught under the acting spells of Appu. His way of accepting a project could be one of the reasons behind his consecutive success. Before committing to anyone, he consults his father, mother, brother and his uncle. Though he is the only star in Kannada with four consecutive hits, he underplays the success in most of the occasions. His latest 'Mourya' a Rockline production marked 100-days on January 28 though the movie was criticized for poor direction and overdose of sentiments. Similarly, 'Veera Kannadiga' ran for 100 days but is not a film that Puneeth would talk about proudly. However, he is now busy acting for his home production 'Akash'. Apparently, there are chances of director, writer Nagathihalli Chandrashekhar directing a film for Appu. Remember, its not frozen yet and still in the primitive stage of discussions.
