We all know that Kannada Power star Puneeth Rajkumar passed away after suffering a massive cardiac arrest. Fondly referred to as ‘Appu’, the ace actor was known for his generous donation to charities and foundations.
Kollywood actor Vishal has now promised to take care of 1800 students who were getting a free education from the deceased actor.
The pre-release event of Vishal’s upcoming film, Enemy co-starring Arya, was held in Hyderabad on Sunday. The movie team paid tributes to Puneeth Rajkumar before starting the event.
“Puneeth Rajkumar is not just a good actor, but a good friend as well. I haven’t seen such a down-to-earth superstar like him. He was doing a lot of social activities and I promise to take care of 1800 students who are getting a free education from Puneeth Rajkumar from next year,” said Vishal at the event.
On learning about Puneeth’s demise, Vishal took to Twitter and expressed his grief. He wrote, “I just can’t believe that my Good Friend Puneeth Rajkumar has passed away & is no more…May his Soul Rest in Peace, my Deepest Condolences, May his Family stay Strong @ these testing times. It’s a Big Loss for the Karnataka Movie Industry & a Big Loss for me as Dear Friend.”
