The art of titles to Names and the meaning for each

Namaskaragalu,
For most of us, we have always given most of our friends some title of the other, And also we would be quite familiar with titles given to popular Bollywood actors, like Jubilee Star, Super star, etc etc. Today’s the time wherein you can get to know a few titles given to popular Kannada, some of them albeit are in English (Like Rebel Star, Karate King, Power star, Hat trick hero, Crazy Star), but there are a few which you might know about which are in Kannada, During the process I hope you learn a few new Kannada words and their meaning.
