Shankar became famous for his rich voice and strong build. He dominated the villian space in the Kannada film industry for nearly a decade. However, he will forever be remembered as a director. All his films carried a message and many of them like Gandhadagudi (starring Dr. Rajkumar and Vishnu Vardhan) were strong commentaries on dwindling forests and fate of wild animals.- Naren Vijayasimha
