Politics

He entered politics dramatically in 1996 after a stint as a film actor donning lead roles in many Kannada films, when he was asked to contest the byelection to fill the vacancy in the Sorab constituency of Shimoga district - which his father represented from 1967 to 1994 - seven times in a row - till he got elected to Loksabha, making way for his son. He was elected to Legislative Assembly of Karnataka on Karnataka Congress Party, a regional political party founded by his father in 1994 after he was asked to resign as Chief Minister.

He was again elected from same assembly constituency in 1999 as a Congress candidate after the merger of Karnataka Congress Party with Congress for second-term. He won as MLA from Sorab constituency on INC for third-term successively in 2004 election. He was inducted into S.M. Krishna government as minister of state for Municipal Administration (Independent Charge). Prior to that, he also worked as Minister of State for Minor Irrigation. For few days, he resigned Indian National Congress party and joined Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for 20 days to revert Congress again.

He lost in 2008 election on Congress ticket, including his brother - Madhu Bangarappa on Samajwadi Party ticket, to Hartalu Halappa from BJP.

Family feud and a rift

He entered politics as a stranger from film industry without wielding any influence even when his father was Chief Minister; however, a rift in the family developed ahead of 2004 elections, apparently, when his father wanted Madhu Bangarappa, his younger brother, to contest on BJP ticket while Kumar Bangarappa contested on Congress and retained the seat. At one stage, he even resigned Congress and left his minister of state portfolio to join BJP as per the directions of his father, returned to Congress soon when he felt uncomfortable in the BJP camp, bringing the family feud matters into the open public. The family feud fueled till Bangarappa and both his sons lost the elections, including the continuance of disturbances between both the brothers during the family ritual celebrations after the death of S. Bangarappa.
