KPAC
Lalitha,
the
Legendary
Mollywood
actress
has
now
become
a
beautiful
memory.
She
will
forever
be
remembered
for
her
unparalleled
contribution
to
the
Malayalam
film
and
TV
industry.
If
her
roles
in
cinema
were
mostly
quirky
and
comical,
in
real
life
she
was
a
person
who
lived
her
life
to
the
fullest
and
believed
in
calling
a
spade
a
spade,
without
a
tinge
of
hesitation.
For
her,
it
really
hadn't
mattered
who
stood
opposite
her
as
long
as
she
was
on
the
righteous
side.
One
such
instance
is
her
altercation
with
late
legendary
actor
Thilakan.
Apparently,
Lalitha
didn't
talk
to
Thilakan
for
years.
Surprisingly,
they
didn't
utter
a
word
to
each
other
even
while
filming
Spadikam
where
they
appeared
as
husband
and
wife,
and
parents
of
Mohanlal's
iconic
character
Thomas
Chacko
aka
Aadu
Thoma.
Sharing
the
reason
for
the
same,
Lalitha
during
her
interaction
with
a
media
house
had
shared
that
Thilakan
accused
her
late
husband
Bharathan
(legendary
filmmaker)
of
discriminating
against
people
on
the
basis
of
caste.
In
her
interaction,
she
further
revealed
that
even
south
actress
Srividya
tried
to
reconcile
their
differences
on
the
sets
of
Aniyathipravu
starring
Kunchacko
Boban
and
Shalini
Ajith
in
the
lead
roles.
She
was
quoted
as
saying,
"He
had
made
baseless
accusations
against
my
husband
and
alleged
that
he
discriminated
people
on
the
basis
of
their
caste.
One
fine
day,
I
lost
control
and
argued
with
him.
We
would
have
ended
up
hitting
each
other
if
Oduvil
Unnikrishnan
had
not
intervened.
He
(Thilakan)
broke
a
match
stick
and
said
he
would
only
talk
to
me
if
the
two
broken
pieces
joined
together.
I
was
also
upset.
I
said
I
wouldn't
talk
to
him
even
if
he
was
going
to
die."
Lalitha
passed
away
on
Tuesday
(February
22).
According
to
reports,
the
actress
had
been
bedridden
for
the
past
few
months
following
liver
ailments
and
diabetes.
