Maarattam is an event to celebrate the 60 years of professional life of Sadanam Krishnankutty, a versatile actor in Kathakali performance, who established his own position in the art and cultural world of Kerala. As a master performer and Guru, he is addressed as Krishnankutty Asan.
Born in 1942 in Cherpulassery in Palakkad district,
Krishnankutty Asan got the full-fledged training in Kathakali from Gandhiseva
Sadanam, Peroor, near Ottappalam. At the
same time he was lucky enough to get the training under the legendary Guru
Keezhpadam Kumaran Nair and Rasabhinaya from the Kutiyattam maestro Guru
Mani Madhava Chakyar. As a performer he travelled many places in India and
abroad. He also served as a trainer in some Kathakali schools, including Unnayi
Varrier Smaraka Kalanilayam and Kerala Kalamandalam.
Krishnankutty Asan’s contributions to the Kathakali world
has well acknowledged by the art and cultural fraternity including State and

at Irinjalakkuda in Thrissur district.
The event is organized by a public committee in association
