I am sure tat i didnt find any thread on the pada karthas.it would be rather gracious on the part of rasika members to speak of the padam composers, their life style and their compositions.....eager to read.

Not intended as an exercise in SSP(shameless self promotion from my own site :) ) but there is a detailed bio of Ksehtrayya here.
Also snippets of others including Yuvaranga, Sarangapani , Parimalaranga, a list of composers of Shrngara Padas etc. It would be nice to see if there is any other info on the other names that listing 56. padam composers mention.

vidya, thank you for the wonderful edition of the SSP - the content is great, and equally importantly, the layout and presentation have been designed exceptionally well. This edition sets the standard for presentation. Congratulations on this remarkable effort, and I hope to benefit from more of your efforts in the future.
