Hi. Guru Dutt was a Chitrapur saraswat and it is a well known fact that chitrapur saraswats are Konkani speaking, Therefore Guru Dutt's first language is Konkani and not Marathi.

hi, replying to your post. I am not sure if Guru dutt spoke Marathi at home or not. But chitrapur saraswat brahmins are konkani speaking people. Please see wiki pages about chitrapur saraswats to confirm this. I do not deny that Girish Karnad and Guru Dutt may have spoken Marathi, but it is not their mother tongue. Chitrapur Saraswats are basically Brahmins from Goa who migrated to coastal Karnataka 500 years ago. Some of those moved to Bombay and therefore picked up Marathi. That is how Girish Karnad and Guru Dutt possibly spoke Marathi. Other Chitrapur Saraswats like Prakash Padukone, Deepika Padukone, Nandan Nilekani moved to Bangalore and thus picked up Kannada. They probably do not know Marathi at all. I am a Chitrapur Saraswat Brahmin, so the information you're getting is factual :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.215.179.159 (talk) 00:24, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Ludwig van Beethoven. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement. Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Softlavender (talk) 01:52, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
