The late Kannada actor Rajkumar a.k.a. annavaru was not a great actor but songs from his movies are the stuff of legend.

Here is a baker’s dozen of some great Rajkumar songs we have enjoyed over the years (not all were sung by him):

Thanuvu Manavu  – Aarti looks hot in this song from Raja Nanna Raja

Nagunagutha Nee baruve – from the movie Giri Kanye

Enneno Aase – from the movie Shankar Guru

Ninade Nenapu – featuring Rajkumar and Aarti this song is from Raja Nanna Raja

Chinnada Mallige Hoove – from the movie Huliya Haalina Mevu

Banigondu Elle Ellide – again featuring Rajkumar and Aarti. This song is from Premada Kanike, later made into Tamil as Polladhavan (Rajinikant)

Naa Bidalare Endhu Ninna – again from Premada Kanike

Yaare Koogadali – Rajkumar in Sampathige Saval
