Actor Vijay Deverakonda is currently on a promotional spree with Ananya Panday for their upcoming movie Liger. They are in Bengaluru to promote the pan-India film. Vijay with his co-star Ananya visited powerstar Puneeth Rajkumar’s memorial in Bengaluru today to pay respects and offer prayers. Pics from their visit to Puneeth’s samadhi (located within the premises of Kanteerava stadium) have gone viral on social media.

Puneeth Rajkumar passed away due to cardiac arrest on October 29 last year. He was just 46. Not only the Kannada film industry, but other film industries mourned his demise. Earlier, celebs like Allu Arjun, Kamal Haasan, Ram Charan, Jr NTR among others came down to pay their respects and also offered condolences to the family of the superstar.
