    Contribution of SAMAGA family of Malpe to the Kannada saraswatha loka is immense especially to Yakshagaana. All of them are well educated well read and well respected. Their discourses are really enlightening. Their " artha" was rich with philosophy and literature. My respectful salutes to the late SAMAGA brothers.
