Rajkumar

Rajkumar
▪ 2007
Muthuraj Singanalluru Puttaswamayya  Indian movie star (b. April 24, 1929, Gajanur, Mysore [now Karnataka], British India—d. April 12, 2006, Bangalore, Karnataka, India), achieved legendary status as the star of more than 200 Kannada-language films. Rajukumar's first film, Bedara Kannapa (1954), made him an immediate star. He went on to portray noble characters in a range of genres—including family dramas, historical epics, and action films—and came to embody the spirit of the people of Karnataka, who called him Annavaru (“elder brother”). In July 2000 he was kidnapped by the notorious Tamil bandit Veerappan, who held him for 108 days before releasing him. At his state funeral, rioting by distraught fans brought Bangalore to a virtual standstill.
