Genius Cinematographer K RAMNOTH in 1954 in the 1st pic [ just 2 years before his tragic and untimely death at the age of 42 years ] and in 1951 in the 2nd pic - He was born in 1912 at Pujapura, Trivandrum . After passing his Bachelor degree, he arrived in Madras in search of a career. He started as a trainee in development and printing department in Kodak in 1932. While he was working there, he wrote articles on the subject of photography for various publications. He sent one such article to a publication called Sound and Shadow . This publication was owned jointly by Muthuswami Iyer and A. K. Sekhar (Muthuswami Iyer later directed films under his pen name Murugadasa and A. K. Sekhar became an art director.) This article led Ramnoth to join these two after he quit working in Kodak. The reason being that motion pictures and film making always fascinated him. He anyway was toying with an idea of joining film makers enthusiastic about making talkies in Madras....
