Namma Tuluver Kala Sanghatane (R) (NATKA) was found in 1986 under the patronage of Dharmayogi Mohan of Shri Aadhishakti Temple, Mudradi. It is an association for art lovers in the field of drama who initially indulged producing new experimental plays to the people of the village who at that time did not have an opportunity to view these type of dramas.
Krishnamurthy Kavathaar’s ‘Siri Sampige’ was the first and foremost play presented by Nama Tuluveru Sanghatane (NATKA) which gave way to an ocean of more and more new plays to the people of this village thus making ‘Mudradi’ a noted place for art and culture in the neighborhood.

Its really the pride for people of  Hebri to have an organisation which is fully dedicated in the field of drama and theatre arts.
