On
Being
Called
Rajkumar's
Son
One
of
the
contestants
on
the
show
asked
Puneeth
Rajkumar,
"You're
a
superstar's
son.
No
matter
what
you
have
achieved
in
your
life,
you'll
always
be
addressed
as
Rajkumar's
son.
How
do
you
face
it?"
Puneeth
Gives
A
Befitting
Answer
Puneeth
responded,
"I
grew
up
in
a
joint
family.
There
used
to
always
be
children
around
me.
In
a
year,
I
would
visit
my
village
for
at
least
two
months.
I
was
the
one
who
spent
the
most
time
with
Appaji."
People
Taunted
Him
He
further
added,
"After
achieving
stardom,
when
I
used
to
commute
in
my
own
car,
people
taunted
saying
I
am
living
off
my
father's
money.
However,
I
never
let
such
things
bother
me."
He
Worked
His
Way
To
Stardom
Puneeth
said
that
he
was
never
treated
as
a
star
kid
in
his
family.
He
said,
"We
were
always
taught
to
work
hard
for
what
we
want.
Still,
wherever
I
go,
I
am
referred
to
as
Dr
Rajkumar's
son.
It
makes
me
feel
proud."
‘I
Can
Never
Be
Dr
Rajkumar'
"I
can
never
be
Dr
Rajkumar.
But,
I
just
want
to
try
living
up
to
him.
We
should
fulfill
our
responsibilities.
I
have
never
suffered
from
(an)
identity
crisis,"
Puneeth
said.
