Versatile actor Milind Gunaji also has a passion for nature and exploring tourist locales and has authored six books in Marathi and one in English. He also has a Belgaum connection-

His father Gunaji hails from Tilakwadi in Belgaum while his mother is from Goa.

Milind is now interested in promoting tourist spots in Belgaum district. He used to travel to Mumbai from Goa via Belgaum and his father would take them to Tilakwadi. Milind is serving as an ambassador for forests and wildlife for the Maharashtra government and on the committee of Maharashtra Tourism Development Corporation, and would like to promote tourism in Karnataka, he said.milindgunaji1

He is fascinated by the beaches of Uttara Kannada. As he is from Belgaum, he would like to do his bit for Belgaum. Some of his friends in Karnataka are helping him get in touch with the Karnataka government to enquire on the future course of action of taking Belgaum as a tourist destination.

New Sign Board: Where is this Kotekere

10:27 AM Posted by ukmad




This is a new board put up by the Karnataka Tourism board at the Gogte Cirlce (Railway Station Circle). It is on the Left hand corner of the Congress Road at the circle. So people coming from Military Mahadev from Congress Road can see it tough the placement is not so visible due the electricity pole.
The biggest Question to me where is this Kotekere, 3 km from there. The graphical sign is of a Beach, with coconut tress and thatch huts.
Please I need to know where is this place 3 kms from Gogte Circle. (now you might say, this guy is blogging about Belgaum and why is he asking us, But I don’t know so only I am asking)

Just got know that "Kere" in Kannada means Lake and Kote means "Fort", so is that Lake near the Fort? Must be.
