The artists of Ananta Fine Arts make excellent Chariots.It won’t be exaggerated if I write “Most of the Hindu temples of coastal Karnataka and Goa have the Chariots made by them”.
You will definitely agree with me by seeing these:
They are good in stone sculptures :
You will love these eye catching clay statues.
This post will be incomplete, if I don’t write about the legend behind the art, Late Shri Shamba Shet.He had got many awards and appreciations from all over the world. Few glimpses are here:

Now the next generation is taking the art forward.
There are many artists and shops of handicrafts in this street.
I’m proud of the artists “Gudigararu”.
