Appu
Not
Interested
In
Politics
When
Yash,
Darshan
and
even
Sudeep
were
seen
supporting
their
closed
ones
in
politics,
fans
expressed
disappointment
saying
they
only
wish
to
see
them
as
actors.
Yesterday,
Puneeth
took
to
social
media
to
say,
"Its
a
well-known
fact
that
I
am
not
interested
in
politics.
I
wish
to
be
identified
as
an
actor
and
not
as
a
politician."
'Do
Not
Use
My
Name'
He
further
added,
"Both
Ambareesh's
and
Deve
Gowda's
families
are
our
well-wishers.
I
pray
to
god
to
give
both
of
them
more
strength
to
serve
the
people.
I
request
people
not
to
use
my
name
in
election
or
politics."
He
Doesn't
Want
To
Influence
His
Fans
"Voting
is
the
constitutional
right
that
every
Indian
has,
which
is
completely
their
choice.
As
an
actor,
I
can
only
ask
them
to
take
part
in
the
election
and
use
the
right
sensibly,
but
I
don't
have
any
right
to
influence
Kannadigas
or
my
fans
to
cast
their
vote
to
one
person
or
party,"
Puneeth
stated.
Puneeth
Isn't
The
Only
One
Seems
like
a
few
actors
have
chosen
to
stay
away
from
politics
to
simply
not
damage
their
acting
career.
Speculations
are
making
rounds
that
Sudeep
is
not
taking
part
in
Sumalatha's
campaign
after
issuing
a
statement
against
supporting
candidates
during
elections.
And
now,
Puneeth
Rajkumar
has
made
his
stance
clear
too.
