Malusare

Malusare can be a Maratha clan. It may also be used as a last name in the Koli community.^[1]^[2]

Iravati Karve noted that in the Godavali village of Satara all marathas belonged to this clan. This made it difficult for the grooms to find brides from the same village.^[2]

Tanaji, who used Malusare as a last name, came from the Koli caste.^[1]

Notable people[edit]
