Puneeth
Rajkumar
is
all
set
to
ring
in
his
44th
birthday
tomorrow
on
March
17.
The
power
star
is
known
to
organize
a
grand
celebration
each
year
at
his
residence.
He
participates
in
a
meet
and
greet
session
with
fans
who
travel
from
across
the
state
to
wish
him
each
year.
However,
Puneeth
has
now
confirmed
that
there
won’t
be
any
grand
celebrations
for
his
birthday
this
year.
The
actor's
decision
comes
in
the
wake
of
the
growing
Coronavirus
outbreak
scare.
Puneeth
took
to
social
media
and
uploaded
a
video
message
for
his
ardent
fans.
He
advised
them
against
traveling
for
his
big
day.
He
also
requested
them
to
keep
the
celebrations
extremely
low
key
as
a
safety
and
precautionary
measure.
He
added,
“Health
is
the
utmost
priority
at
these
times
and
I
do
not
want
any
of
you
to
risk
your
health.
I
request
all
of
you
to
not
travel
from
across
the
state.
Let
us
respect
the
government’s
directive
to
not
have
large
gatherings
in
the
state.
I'm
grateful
for
all
of
your
love
and
blessings.”
In
the
meantime,
the
makers
of
Appu’s
next
Yuvarathnaa
have
decided
to
drop
a
dialogue
teaser
today
as
a
birthday
gift
for
the
fans.
The
much-awaited
teaser
of
Puneeth’s
highly
anticipated
Sandalwood
biggie
will
be
released
online
on
the
eve
of
his
birthday.
Yuvarathnaa
is
the
actors’
first
release
of
2020
and
has
been
in
the
making
for
quite
some
time
now.
A
few
days
ago,
the
official
Twitter
handle
of
the
production
house-
Hombale
Films
confirmed
the
same
and
wrote,
“The
birthday
celebrations
