It has also been adopted to a movie of the same name. The movie had won the 47th Indian National Film Awards in Best Regional Film category. Deletion of the article is not acceptable as i have already provided the required details.[reply]

Wkacnt (talk) 06:58, 21 October 2011 (UTC)Matadana is book by Sahitya academy winner S.L.Bhyrappa (for Novel Daatu) [[1]]. This page has genuine information about the book and as this is a one of the Indian regional language book, its difficult to find information in Google as a pdf or any other document proof. Requesting not to delete as this is first step for spread of valuable information. The references provided are checked and are valid.[reply]
