New Delhi:
Die-hard fans of late Kannada star, Dr Rajkumar, may have seen all his films several times, but now they are privy to some rare and unpublished photographs of the actor in candid moments. Dr Rajkumar's younger son Puneet Rajkumar, who himself is one of the top actors in the Kannada film industry has written and released a book about his father today, in Bangalore.
The book is titled Dr. Rajkumar: The Person Behind The Personality. The book which will cost Rs 2500 was released in the presence of other celebrities from the Kannada film industry. The book is apparently a reflection of a son's perspective, who quotes several anecdotes from his father's life.
On this occasion, Puneet Rajkumar said, "It's a very nice 'feel good' book. It took me 8 years to compile it. Whatever money is being collected from the sale of the book, will be given to the charity. It is a collection of pictures from family and fans."
Talking about one of his memorable moments Shiv Rajkumar, Dr Rajkumar's elder son said, "One of my favourite moments with dad was when I was 12 or 13. During the shoot of a film, dad had to row the boat against the current. It was risky and dangerous. I was so worried that I wanted to jump in the water and save him. But by that time others had already gone and saved him. I was so awestruck that my dad was so brave."
