The Hindu
Characters he brought on the Kathakali stage breathed fire
Nelliyode Vasudevan Namboothiri, who died the other day aged 82, was a consummate Kathakali artiste. Soft-spoken and humble, the characters he brought on the Kathakali stage breathed fire. He was a sought-after performer across Kerala to enact the characters wearing the chuvanna thaadi (red beard) such as Bali, Sugreevan, Dussasanan, Jarasandhan and Bakan.More Related News
