On October 29, 2021, Karnataka lost more than a film star when Puneeth Rajkumar — known to millions as Appu, the Powerstar — died suddenly, sending waves of grief across India. He was the son of a legend, Dr. Rajkumar, yet he had carved his own place in the hearts of people not merely through talent but through an uncommon humility that fame rarely preserves. His passing reminds us that what we mourn most deeply is not celebrity itself, but the rare human being who wears it lightly.
