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.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“I looked at my daughters, and my boyhood picture, and appreciated the gift of parenthood, at that moment, more than any other gift I have ever been given. For what person, except one’s own children, would want so deeply and sincerely to have shared your childhood? Who else would think your insignificant and petty life so precious in the living, so rich in its expressiveness, that it would be worth partaking of what you were, to understand what you are?”
—Gerald Early (20th century)
“As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do—I just did it.”
—Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
