Ramakrishnan's post is a nice obituary for Thambi. When we were in Srimukha, Thambi and I saw well over 100 movies (closer to 130 if I remember aright - I have lost the diary in which I kept a list) - all night shows - in a period of one year! After dinner, he would casually ask me to see that was running and we would go to one or the other. On his motorbike. And on the way back, on many nights we had tea at Irani's, Royapettah.
It is the end of an era. And then Nana. And today, one of the residents of Brindavan Palm Grove died in hospital after a brief illness. A sad time, all said.
With our trip to Colombo and then with all the things happening, I have been quite inactive with the blog. Apologies to everyone. I am glad that Ramakrishnan has filled the gaps.
