Late Kannada power star Puneeth Rajkumar’s last film James was released posthumously on Thursday, March 17. Today is also his birth anniversary. Celebrations were held in several theaters across Karnataka as fans of the star were excited to see him on screen. Though the news of his death has left a huge void in the hearts of his fans, they could not stop themselves from being happy when they saw Appu on screen. Confetti was thrown around and the audience refused to sit as a tribute to the late actor.
47 auto rickshaws paraded in Avanvagera on his 47th birthday.
The 6 am show at the Davangere Movie Theater in Karnataka also saw a full house. Despite Section 144 being imposed in many places, fans can be seen celebrating in almost all corners of the state. In addition, 32 shows of James were screened at Rockline Mall, Bangalore.
Puneet Rajkumar asked his fans not to waste milk on his poster cut-out as it is considered auspicious to shower milk on an idol. His fans kept his request and avoided it saying that he planned to shower flowers.
In the film, Puneet plays the role of Santosh, a security agent who leads a squad to dismantle a mafia operation. In the teaser, he is introduced as someone who is known for his instincts and intuition. An exchange between the villain and Puneet concludes the teaser. When the former insisted, “My opponents have no winning record,” Puneet replied that he is known to break such records.
Puneet’s brother Shivrajkumar and Raghavendra Rajkumar have made cameos in Gems. Puneet Rajkumar’s voice in the film was dubbed by his brother Shiv Rajkumar.
Puneeth Rajkumar, fondly called Appu by his fans, died of a heart attack on October 29 at Vikram Hospital in Bengaluru. At that time he was 46 years old.
