Raju - remember the word parochial with a capital "P". There is no way this small group would even have come across Namboodiris, leave alone thought about them.
All this is really ironic because this very group had migrated South from Maharashtra and had the patronage of kings in an earlier era, and members of these and other groups had the patronage of the Maharaja of Mysore in a later era.
