"Suragyasar" is a good contribution to Konkani folklore literary heritage and culture. These traditional poems, customs, songs and celeberations on the occasion of weddings and other samskaras are slowely forgotten and discarded by youth- present generation. Most people donot understand them and therefore cannot appreciate them. Dr. Jyothsna Krishnanad Kamat has helped the community to overcome this problem through this her book.
The Author has made a thorough study of our floklore. Through a good introduction to this book she has explained and analysed various aspects of wedding-poems and our custom in this regard. She has aroused our interest in our folklore- heritage through this book.
