Chairman of Kannada Development Authority Purushothama Bilimale released “Ullakulu: Aaradhana Ananyate”, a book on “Ullakulu” Bhootaradhane tradition, in Mangaluru on Thursday.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Bilimale said no other folk tradition in India has seen as much quality research as Bhootaradhane has. Ullakulu was a continuation of this scholarly tradition. Author Poovappa Kaniyoor has revised and refined his research done 22 years ago and published it after it has matured.
