Nedumudi Venu and Malayalam movies

As I was browsing through my mobile net after dinner this evening, I came across an old news item that the popular Malayalam actor Nedumudi Venu passed away. I don't know as to how I missed the sad news. As a very talented actor, he will be remembered for years to come.
 
I fondly rembember my two years residence in Kochi in 1984 and 1985 when I was teaching in Cochin Refineries School. That was the time when I could learn conversational Malayalam, thanks to the Malayalam cinema and my colleagues including the very simple Smt Sreedevi Rajan (HOD Malayalm), daughter of the Kathakali celebrity Late Shree Kalamandalam Krishnan Nair.
