Puneeth
Rajkumar
breathed
his
last
on
October
29
due
to
a
heart
attack
at
the
age
of
46.
His
untimely
demise
indeed
left
fans
and
the
entire
film
fraternity
in
shock.
As
many
still
grapple
to
come
to
terms
with
the
news
of
his
death,
Tamil
actor
Sivakarthikeyan
has
shared
about
his
last
conversation
with
the
late
actor.
During
his
interaction
with
the
Indian
Express,
the
actor
shared
that
he
talked
with
Puneeth
a
month
ago
and
during
their
conversation,
the
Power
Star
had
invited
him
to
his
house
in
Bengaluru.
Reminiscing
his
first
meeting
with
Puneeth,
Sivakarthikeyan
said,
"I
met
Puneeth
Rajkumar
sir
for
the
first
time
during
an
award
function.
I
had
performed
a
mimicry
of
Rajinikanth
and
he
had
appreciated
me
for
the
same
back
then.
Just
about
a
month
ago,
I
had
the
opportunity
to
speak
with
sir
again.
And
during
the
phone
call,
I
was
talking
about
a
lot
of
things
with
him.
Despite
being
a
huge
star,
he
had
no
hesitation
in
telling
me
that
he
had
seen
all
my
films
and
he
liked
them.
And
he
invited
me
to
his
house.
It
was
not
out
of
formality.
He
invited
me
to
his
house
at
least
five
times
during
our
conversation."
Sivakarthikeyan
also
shared
that
he
could
understand
the
pain
Puneeth's
family
especially
his
daughters
are
going
through
during
this
time
as
he
too
lost
his
father
at
a
very
young
age.
Further,
he
added
that
the
Kannada
superstar
had
watched
his
recently
released
film
Doctor
and
had
even
talked
about
it
to
his
wife
Ashwini.
Sivakarthikeyan
was
quoted
as
saying,
"After
watching
Doctor,
he
phoned
the
director
(Nelson
Dilipkumar)
and
spoke
with
him.
Just
now
I
got
to
know
from
ma'am
that
he
mentioned
Doctor
to
her
many
times
after
watching
it.
I
didn't
know
how
to
react
to
it
when
ma'am
told
me
that.
She
told
me
that
the
film
made
him
laugh
so
hard
and
I
consider
it
as
one
of
my
biggest
fortunes."
Sivakarthikeyan
also
visited
the
Kanteerava
Studio
to
pay
his
last
respect
to
Puneeth.
He
also
met
the
late
actor's
family
members
to
express
his
condolences.
