recently
made
an
important
announcement

will
make
late
actor
Puneeth

fans
happy.
The
CM
announced
the
posthumous
Karnataka

Award
to
the
late
Sandalwood

Well,
it
is
indeed
big
news
for
Puneeth
Rajkumar
fans
as
they
were
urging
the

to
honour
him
after

After
all,
the

He
was
survived
by
his
wife
Ashwini
Revananth
and
two
daughters.
Notably,
more
than
10
lakh
people
had
arrived
to
pay
their
last
respects
to
Puneeth

He
was
fondly
known
as
'Appu' amongst
the
masses.
Coming

very
much
happy
with
