I must say that the author has done a commendable job in listing some of the best movies of Dr. Rajkumar. However, some of the best movies were still conspiciously missing. Movies like Satya Harischandra, Mantralaya Mahatme, Bhakta Kanakadasa, Bhakta Prahlada and Bangarada Manushya are all time great movies and they deserve a place in perhaps anybody's list of best films of Dr. Rajkumar. I dont know if the missing list is due to inadvertence or otherwise but the above listed movies should be part of the icon's best movies.
Thank you for compiling this wonderful list. Obviously no list of Rajkumar's is complete with many of the other fantastic movies, but one stands out and thats missing here is BANGARADA MANUSHYA. This is one of the greats and I highly recommend this to each and everyone in India.
All of Dr. Rajkumar's films are watchable(enjoyable) with family. There was message in his films for every one. I think he was the only actor in this world who never touched alcohol and smoked cigarete in his life even in his films. The first and only true singing and acting superstar . Rajanna we really miss you
It is very difficult to pick and list memorable movies from this great actor since all of them were wonderful. But thanks for attempting a list and taking us back to old memories.
I am glad to see the best movies listed of Dr. Rajkumar. Although it is not possible to list all his movies as best ones and the opinion is subjective i feel the authour has inadvertently missed out some movies like Satya Harischandra, Bhaktha Kanakadasa and Bangarada manushya. I feel these movies should have found place in the best movies of Dr. Rajkumar since they had universal appeal.
Thank you for this article. You have covered most of the good films of Rajkumar. But you have forgotten to mention the name of his unforgettable film Bangarada Manushya, which run for the record two years in Bangalore Theatres. His acting in this film with Bharati as heroine is commandable.Kannada Film Industry will not get a actor like Rajkumar who played all types of roles. It is very rare case in any Film indusrty, an actor played all types of roles. Becuase most of the heros are branded for certian images. But Rajkumar was exceptional for this. Rajkumar is comparable with only with Rajkumar non other than him.
