Karnataka Ratna award is the highest civilian honour conferred by the state of Karnataka. Puneeth’s father and acting legend Dr Rajkumar was also the recipient of this honour in 1992.
Rajinikanth and Jr NTR shared a very strong relationship with Puneeth Rajkumar, who passed away last year. Puneeth’s untimely death at the age of 46 sent a shock wave across the country.
