    AATIYA aatagalu, kesara gadde otagalu are very interesting to watch. Likewise, aatiya eatables are very tasty to eat. It reminds me of our childhood days when we used to consume Pothrade, Kanile, Thajank etc.

    Owner in the first picture looks very happy with his cattle. If his Happiness has to remain like this then he has to also make suitable security arrangement to his cattle over the weekend or else chances are it will be picked up for cheap meat on somebody's plate and people will justify it by saying Abandoned.

    Longing to see Tulunadu traditional sports!
    Thoroughly enjoyable!
    Tired of vouching news of accidents, attacks, hatred, robberies and in-principled Politics.
    Sports reduces hatred and corruption to a great extent and promotes good health.
