Puneeth Rajkumar had stiffness in back, was asked to avoid rigorous dance steps
Puneeth Rajkumar had undergone physiotherapy for stiffness in back and calf muscles and was asked not to indulge in rigorous activities. “He was complaining of stiffness in back and calf muscles. After 2 physio sessions and massage, his pain was relieved. He said this problem occurred during the shooting of a dance number for ‘Yuvaratna’. We advised him not to try rigorous dance steps for a while and be careful about it in the future. But he laughed and brushed it off. ‘When I am shooting for a movie, I can’t say no to doing anything,’ was his answer,” recalls Dr. Palanivel, Chief Physiotherapist at La Yantra.

Actor Puneeth Rajkumar’s last rites will be performed today evening. Only family members and close friends can attend the last rites of the Kannada film star at Kanteerava studios, where his parents were also laid to rest. Common public will not be allowed.
