Early Life
Hegde hailed from the aristocratic Nayara Bettu Bunt family of Kawdoor in Karkala taluk, Udupi district, Karnataka, India. Born the son of a wealthy aristocrat Kawdoor Subhayya Hegde and Irmaadi Lingamma Heggadathi, he was the last progeny among a brood of seven siblings of the Bunt couple. His elder siblings were Laxmi, Shrinivas, Radha, Rukhmini, Ramayya and Kamala. Young Sadananda was born many years after the last daughter Kamala and as is the widely held belief, being the youngest in the family was undoubtedly the most pampered. He was exceptionally brilliant in studies.
