A. N. Swamy Venkatadri Iyer (13 January 1898 – 14 February 1939), known by his pen name as Samsa, was an early 20th century's Indian historical playwright in Kannada language. His plays Suguna Gambhira, Vigada Vikramaraya and Bettada Arasu have been made into stage dramas and prescribed as textbooks in various universities in Karnataka. He was called as Shakespeare of Kannada Drama. An open-air theatre in the premises of government owned Ravindra Kalakshetra, is named after Samsa.
