Gopalakrishna Gokhale had immense influence on DVG. Other than the biography of Diwan Rangacharlu, the biography of Gopalakrishna Gokhale by DVG is a much appreciated one.
These very values of the author were reiterated in his second biography of Gopalakrishna Gokhale.

Though DVG only completed matriculation, he gained tremendous knowledge to become a preeminent literary name in Karnataka. DVG was a titan among Kannada writers, says Ranganatha Sharma. Throwing light on life in its various aspects, this inspiring literature sends out a positive message to all: live, learn, grow and be a blessing to your surroundings. Translated twice into English, this work has its renderings in Hindi and Sanskrit too. Countless similes, metaphors and multitude of choice expressions make the reading of the Kagga thoroughly delightful. Facing life's challenges with cheerfulness, understanding everything as a divine play, recognizing our own and others needs, honoring human aspirations and dreams, working for noble causes and above all, dissolving our ego in mature thinking are among the great thoughts that the Kagga offers.
The title of this work can be translated as "Dull Thimma's Rigmarole". Published in 1943, Mankuthimmana Kagga is one of the best known of the major literary works in Kannada.
