The enduring legacy of Dr. Rajakumar, Karnataka Rathna Padmabhushana, commenced in 1994 when he became the ambassador for Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF) products. During a special event held at Ravindra Kalakshetra, he was presented with a cow as a symbol of goodwill for the farmers of Karnataka. Remarkably, Dr. Rajakumar graciously declined any remuneration for his role.
The cow presented to him was housed in Gajanur for an extended period, becoming a testament to his dedication to the cause. Following in his father’s footsteps, Dr. Rajakumar’s third son, Karnataka Rathna Dr. Puneeth Rajakumar, continued the legacy by becoming the brand ambassador for KMF Nandini products. In an advertisement, Puneeth Rajakumar even featured consuming milk from a massive pot, further endorsing the state farmers’ products without seeking any personal favors.
In an exciting development, the former MD, Premnath, played a pivotal role in securing Upendra as a brand ambassador for KMF products. Now, the first son of Dr. Rajakumar, Dr. Shivarajakumar, has gladly accepted the opportunity to be associated with Nandini and KMF products. Displaying the same humility and dedication as his father, Dr. Shivarajakumar expressed his commitment to visiting all branches of KMF and supporting the farmers.
KMF President, Bheema Naik, expressed immense joy and satisfaction for the esteemed Kannada actor, Dr. Shivarajakumar, joining the KMF legacy. This association marks another significant chapter in the remarkable journey of the Rajakumar family’s support for Karnataka’s dairy farmers.
