Google marks Kannada actor Rajkumar’s birthday with a doodle

Google paid tribute to revered Kannada singer-actor Rajkumar with a doodle on his 88th birth anniversary.

Born as Singanalluru Puttaswamayya Muthuraju in 1929 at Gajanur, he was renamed later as Rajkumar to better suit his silver screen persona. Widely acclaimed as a method actor, he was trained in Carnatic music and had lent his voice to hundreds of songs in a career spanning over four decades.
