Day One




Though I wake up early morning, one day I had to wake up earlier than the usual time. It is because I had to get ready for a celebrity interview with Krishnakumar, a well known actor in Malayalam and Tamil film industry. He stays at Sasthamangalam, a place in the Trivandrum city. I was in tension until the wave of euphoria blew from him and family.


His debut movie was Kashmeeram in the year 1994. Before that he was an anchor in Doordarshan, the national channel. The life, attitude and believes of an actor is totally different from that of a common man. He had done excellent roles in movies like - Kashmeeram, Vasanthiyum lakshmiyum pinne njanum, Melvilasam, Run baby run, Ladies and gentleman, Billa2 and more. He is not in super star list but even if it is a character for 1 minute he will be noted for his performance. He is very caring and loving person who is very much considerate about the society. There was a break in his career but through tamil movies he came back with strong and notable characters.

Krishnakumar know the harsh reality of life and believes in the action and mind of a person rather than prayers alone. It is not easy to understand, accept or appreciate his thoughts and action unless your attitude matches with him. With four kids (all girls) and wife he leads a very normal and simple life in the city without any collisions.
