Even during S.L. Bhyrappa's lifetime, those who couldn't tolerate his success and popularity wrote baseless things about him even after his demise. They spread misinformation. They said he wasn't a writer at all. They labeled him a casteist. Like self-proclaimed great scholars, they serially criticized Bhyrappa's novels. They made futile attempts to find flaws.
