Meet to commemorate lyricist Thirumala held

Thiruvananthapuram: Lyricist and poet Bichu

Thirumala

broke all stereotypical styles of writing and he was blessed with the gift to write songs tailored for any situation, said writer and former chief secretary K Jayakumar here on Thursday.

Speaking at a commemorative meeting of Thirumala, he said that Thirumala wrote songs in such a way that any ordinary person could understand.

“I have never seen a more versatile poet like him. Over the course of time, his songs are getting more and more close to the heart. We have lost so many talented people from the Malayalam industry recently and this loss makes me even sadder,” said K Jayakumar.

Malayalam Visual Media Co-operative Society organized the function

His younger brother and music director Darshan Raman also attended the function. He recited Thirumala’s first poem ‘Chandamerunnoru Poove’, which was written by him as a 14-year-old boy.

“It was my brother who brought me into the world of music,” said Raman.

Actor and singer Krishna Chandran shared his memories with Thirumala.

He recollected his first meeting and their works together.

He also said that he was lucky enough to get a chance to sing and act in the songs written by Thirumala.
