    It is very regretting to note about the sudden death of Shivananda Karkera who was a tulu poet, writer and dramatist. He has encouraged me a lot in writing tulu poems. Because of his coaxing I started to write in Tulu (poems) and my maiden poetry about COCOA COALA was written and read at Mangaladevi Temple stage. So i always cherish his memories . May his soul Rest In Peace.
