A statue of legendary Kannada actor Dr Rajkumar in the avatar of a farmer has been installed at a park which is named "Bangarada Manushya Park" at Hiriyur in Chitradurga district.
Sandalwood actor Duniya Vijay, who visited this place, inaugurated the renovated park and statue. This is located at the main entrance of APMC Yard. An idol of Dr Rajkumar in the guise of a farmer riding a cart and a statue of a cow drinking milk with a dog was already there in this spot from several years. But these statues had lost its sheen due to rain and shine and was about to collapse.
But the park was renovated by the initiative of one called Huchchavvana Halli Prasanna who is the taluk president of Dr Rajkumar fans association. Duniya Vijay, who inaugurated this statue, spoke high of Prasanna.
"Prasanna has paid tributes to Dr Rajkumar by giving life to this statue." Besides, the actor gave a message stating that farmers must be protected so that their lives do not perish. Duniya Vijay thanked the artist of Chitradurga's Muruga mutt who was instrumental in restoring these idols. While thanking, he also said that the youth must engage themselves in social activities such as these. He also urged people to watch Kannada movies in theatres and encourage artists.
