Puneeth Rajkumar Proves He's Truly A Power Star, Keeps The Show Going

We all know about Power Star Pawan Kalyan in Tollywood. But did you know who holds the same title in Sandalwood? Well, it's none other than Puneeth Rajkumar aka Appu. He has several brilliant movies to his credit and the actor, the youngest sons of late Kannada matinee idol Rajkumar, has delivered some powerful performances. That's not it. Starting off as a child artiste, Puneeth Rajkumar has never looked back. He has only built on his strength and carved a niche for himself in the industry.

And not the one to rest on his past laurels, Puneeth has made an attempt to reinvent himself one movie after another and gone on to cement his position in the industry. No wonder then he is called the Power Star of Sandalwood. That has also made him one of the most sought-after faces to endorse big brands. Appu also hosts one of the most popular games shows in Kannada television—Kannadadha Kotyaadipathi, the Kannada version of the Hindi show Kaun Banega Crorepati hosted by legendary Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan.

So, if you are wondering what makes him a power star. Here's another instance where the Kannada actor has demonstrated by example. We all know that the film industry has suffered losses because of the lockdown. So while producers were worried over the reopening of theatres and the eternal wait to release movies, Puneeth has reportedly sold two of his productions Law and French Biriyani, to OTT platforms to ensure producers don't run into losses. Isn't it a good gesture? Trust Puneeth Rajkumar to keep the show going.
