All the websites on Yakshagana continue to remain dormant but the number of people writing blogs on Yakshagana seems to be increasing. The latest addition to the world of Yakshagana blogs is Oddolaga. The blog owner, Nagaraja Mattigar, is a journalist with a Kannada daily, and a trained Yakshagana artiste from Yakshagana Kendra Udupi. His first post is on his guru Sanjeev Suvarna....
I know about two other Kannada blogs on Yakshagana: Subrahmanya Bhat's Ballirenayya and Raj Kumar's Yakshachintana. Both of them have some interesting articles and personal narratives on Yakshagana but neither of them is exclusively on Yakshagana as they have articles on other topics too. In addition Sudhanwa Deraje's Champakavathi and G N Ashoka Vardhan's Athree are the other blogs I visit for occasional posts on Yakshagana. Nagaraj says oddolaga is going to be all about Yakshagana. Good.
It is high time a professional Yakshagana artiste started a blog....
