Timeline

1924

Kalamandalam Krishnankutty Poduval (1924-1992) was a self-taught Maestro of Kathakali percussion who excelled in the art of chenda playing by redefining its aesthetics as an audio accompaniment for the classical dance-drama from Kerala in south India.

Poduval, who was born in the Kathakali village of Vellinezhi in Palakkad district, was groomed in chenda playing by legendary Moothamana Kesavan Namboodiri and Pattikkamthodi Ravunni Menon, in whose classrooms he underwent training in playing the percussion instrument.

He had earlier received basic training in chenda under Chamrankulangara Appu Marar.

Poduval has been credited with lending audio support on the chenda to emotional scenes on the Kathakali stage.

His art, in tandem with the late maddalam Maestro Kalamandalam Appukutty Poduval, won wide appreciation from audiences.
