Veteran journalist and writer Patil Puttappa had described Rajkumar as a natural strength of Kannada whose mass appeal was much more than any leader in Indian politics.[147] He was also praised for confining himself to the Kannada cinema through a conscious decision.[66] His movies were praised for showing consistent interest in building a Kannada society and not a Kannada nation as such.[148] His presence was reported to have filled the void between the state and the nation which neither the littérateurs nor the politicians could accomplish.[149]
Some observers are of the opinion that his star appeal helped bring together the diverse regions of Karnataka. The state was carved out in 1956, bringing together different regions like Hyderabad Karnataka, which were areas ruled by the erstwhile Nizam of Hyderabad; Mumbai Karnataka, which has a strong Marathi influence; Old Mysore region ruled by the Mysore royal family and the hilly regions and coastal belt. Each region has a distinct identity within the state and Rajkumar was accepted as a Kannada icon across all regions. He spoke Kannada in a distinct way which had a universal appeal across the state. This was an important aspect since his career played out when the state's identity was still evolving.[150] Rajkumar's movies were largely credited for creating a unified Kannada cultural space after the formation of the state.[151] It was reported that before linguistic reorganization of the states, the default state border for the Kannada speaking population was the last point where Rajkumar films were distributed.[152]
