Mysore/Mysuru: KPCC Literary and Cultural Committee President and actor, music director Sadhu Kokila has said that literature and music has its roots in Mysuru that is popular as the Cultural Capital, from where it spreads across the State.
He was speaking after handing over Congress Party flag to Nagesh Kandegala, the Mysuru District President of KPCC Literary and Cultural Committee, at the party office in city on Monday.
Sadhu Kokila said, be it any Government or platform, music and lyrics is significant in highlighting Gods. Hence, the artistes are described as Gandharva, a musician with a soft personality.
