[chinnapillalabandi]

Tendul kar

Gavas kar

Manjre kar

Vengsar kar

Agar kar

Why sooo? Is kar is a common word there

[Thokkalee]

Kar is like ‘wala’ in hindi or ‘du’ in Telugu (eg: govindudu, srinivasudu, eeswarudu)..

Kar means belonging to the village of ani ardam

So valla ancestral village edaitho undo aa prantham ki chendina vaaru ani

Nothing do with caste as a lot of people think

as far as I know all *kar ending are brahmins, kar means belonging to a place, usually western ghats of Maharastra. It basically intends to show that the family has roots in that particular village/town/region/district/city. E.g. Mumbaikar, Punekar, Gavaskar, Tendulkar,  Parulkar, Mangeshkar, etc.

Marathi surnames also ends with ‘war’ especially for komati caste in Maharashtra.

originally it is only brahmins but those who didn't had last names or who want to change last names opted for some thing like *kar

Ambedkar was his adopted surname, the person who he adopted that name from was his mentor and a Brahmin. He's the one that introduced Bhimrao to Buddhism
