"kolvont" the actual meaning would be kola-vont a female stage actress. Girls 
dancing in temples was was very much prevalent in olden times The portuguese 
tried to put an end to it and may be this was one of the reason for not having 
female stage actors on the (christians) konkani stage. The kola vont became 
kolvont or one to be jeered upon
