His style is so popular that it is called <i><b>Chittani Gharana</b></i>.

He used to perform on stage better than any younger artists. The ever lasting concrete experience on stage has enabled him to master even the most vigorous and tough character of the art, he added. He had even earned praise and appreciation from the legend of Kannada cinema the late <a href="/wiki/Dr._Rajkumar" title="Dr. Rajkumar">Dr Rajkumar.</a><sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Chittani_and_Yakshagana">Chittani and Yakshagana</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chittani_Ramachandra_Hegde&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Chittani and Yakshagana"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Chittani Ramachandra Hegde is one of the few names that Badaguthittu brings to mind. The Badagu style of Yakshagana is the coming together of dialogue, dance and acting. When all the three aspects are in the right proportion, the character that is portrayed comes out as required. This style of Yakshagana provides a great scope for the growth of the character portrayed. In fact Yakshagana is one art that provides a huge canvas for the characters to come to life. Probably no other art form offers that scope. As a result, the growth of the artiste means the growth of the character and hence the growth of the art itself. </p><p>Wearing anklets on his feet and having dedicated more than six decades of his life to Yakshagana, Chittani was an artist of very high calibre. Chittani knew no world other than Yakshagana. Even at his ripe old age, not a single day was complete without Chittani tying anklets to his feet for the dance. Chittani was also known for his generous and encouraging attitude especially towards his fellow artists. </p><p>Chittani grew up to the sounds of the <a href="/wiki/Chande" title="Chande">Chande</a> and <a href="/wiki/Maddale" title="Maddale">Maddale</a>. Yakshagana is very active through the year in North and South Canara and Shimoga district. Chittani, influenced by this environment since childhood, gave up his studies after class two and ever since has devoted all his time towards learning and perfecting the art of Yakshagana. Having learnt the intricacies of the art from a number of troupes and artistes like Shivarama Hegde and Kondadakuli Rama Hegde, Chittani soon rose to the level of playing the lead roles. Whichever troupe that Chittani became part of, had nothing to worry about as all the shows ran to packed houses whenever Chittani performed. It would not amount to exaggeration if one were to say that Chittani was the only 'box office hero' in the history of Yakshagana. </p><p>According to his fans, some of the characters portrayed by Chittani have actually been created by him. Bhasmasura-Mohini's Bhasmasura, Gadhayudda's Kaurava, Sudhanvarjuna's Arjuna as well as Sudhanva, Keechaka, Jarasandha, Karthaveeryarjuna, Dushtabuddhi, Maghagada, kamsa, kaladara, Rudrakopa among others, are characters which he mastered. He has grown with the characters he portrayed and the characters too have grown with him. Chittani was more of an entertaining artist. </p><p>With his performances, he drew a fan following which included Kannada stars like <a href="/wiki/Dr._Rajkumar" title="Dr. Rajkumar">Dr.Raj Kumar</a>, <a href="/wiki/Udaykumar" title="Udaykumar">Uday Kumar</a> and Sreenath. Uday Kumar, who was known for his negative roles, would attend 'all-night' Yakshagana performances at the Town Hall in Bengaluru to study Chittani's expressions. Some of the expressions enacted by Yakshagana artists are known after Chittani.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Mantapa Prabhakara Upadhya, Yakshagana artiste, described Chittani as a man who had taught him humility and the need to respect even the person who bought the cheapest ticket for a show. "He once told me that one should put on banna (make-up) as if it was one's last performance. That is the highest philosophy I have learnt from Chittani", said Upadhya.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The kind of life that Chittani had breathed into the character of Bhasmasura while performing on stage was unparalleled. The portrayal of the character of Bhasmasura was extraordinary. Chittani's greatest plus points were his dancing and acting abilities, it was his presentation of anger, shringara or fear, that brought him to the forefront. His two sons, Subramanya Chittani and Narasimha Chittani, are already following in the footsteps of their father and pursuing the art. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="First_Padmashri_award_for_Yakshagana">First Padmashri award for Yakshagana</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chittani_Ramachandra_Hegde&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: First Padmashri award for Yakshagana"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Chittani Ramachandra Hegde is the first artist performing Yakshagana, to receive prestigious <b>Padmashri</b> award and he dedicated the award to "Yakshagana".<sup id="cite_ref-honour_10-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-honour-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <ul class="gallery mw-gallery-packed" style="text-align:left"> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 202px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 200px;"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:President_Pratibha_Patil_presents_Padma_Shri_to_Ramachandra_Subraya_Hegde_Chittani_at_Padma_Awards_ceremony_at_the_Rashtrapati_Bhavan_in_New-Delhi(2012).jpg" class="mw-file-description" title="President Pratibha Patil presents Padma Shri to Ramachandra Subraya Hegde Chittani at Padma Awards ceremony at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New-Delhi (2012)"><img alt="President Pratibha Patil presents Padma Shri to Ramachandra Subraya Hegde Chittani at Padma Awards ceremony at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New-Delhi (2012)" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ef/President_Pratibha_Patil_presents_Padma_Shri_to_Ramachandra_Subraya_Hegde_Chittani_at_Padma_Awards_ceremony_at_the_Rashtrapati_Bhavan_in_New-Delhi%282012%29.jpg/300px-President_Pratibha_Patil_presents_Padma_Shri_to_Ramachandra_Subraya_Hegde_Chittani_at_Padma_Awards_ceremony_at_the_Rashtrapati_Bhavan_in_New-Delhi%282012%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="150" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ef/President_Pratibha_Patil_presents_Padma_Shri_to_Ramachandra_Subraya_Hegde_Chittani_at_Padma_Awards_ceremony_at_the_Rashtrapati_Bhavan_in_New-Delhi%282012%29.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="400" data-file-height="300" /></a></span></div> <div class="gallerytext">President Pratibha Patil presents Padma Shri to Ramachandra Subraya Hegde Chittani at Padma Awards ceremony at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New-Delhi (2012)</div> </li> </ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Gallery">Gallery</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Chittani_Ramachandra_Hegde&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Gallery"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul class="gallery mw-gallery-traditional"> <li class="gallerycaption">Chittani Ramachandra Hegde Photos</li> <li class="gallerybox" style="width: 215px"> <div class="thumb" style="width: 210px;
