Though Puneeth is considered a brilliant actor, it wasn't always his dream. When asked what he would have been if not for an actor, he said, "If any of my business ventures had clicked and I had made the money that I intended to, I would probably never have become an actor again."

The Nata Sarvabhouma actor however has a rather different opinion about films. He said, "I am not a creative person and so don't expect me to write or direct a film. I do not know the difference between art and commercial films. Any film that compels you to watch it again and again is good cinema. Good cinema does not require stars."
