Guru Chemancheri Kunhiraman Nair, who died here on Monday at the age of 104, was a seasoned Kathakali actor and he played a significant role in making classical dances such as Bharatanatyam popular in north Kerala.
Remarkably, he continued to perform till a few years ago. Age could not wither his passion for the stage. He was indeed one of Kerala’s most durable performing artistes. After learning the Kalladikkodan school of Kathakali from Guru Karunakara Menon, he began performing at the age of 15. One recalls watching him enact the role of Parashurama with great vigour before a full house at the Town Hall here some seven years ago.More Related News
