Comedian Kumarimuthu is no more!

Comedian Kumarimuthu, best known for his inimitable laughter, passed away on Sunday night at Kauveri Hospital after suffering from age-related ailments. Kumarimuthu was 77 years old.

Best known for his roles in Nandu, Oomai Vizhigal and Sahadevan Mahadevan, Kumarimuthu grabbed the headlines last year when he was expelled from the Nadigar Sangam for using an offensive word in the meeting. He was also one of the celebrity campaigners for the DMK in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections.

We register our deepest condolences to the bereaved family, fans and friends in the film fraternity!
