Jagathy Sreekumar
Actor · b. 1951 · Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, Thiru-Kochi
Jagathy Sreekumar (born Sreekumar Achary, January 5, 1951) is one of the greatest comic actors in Indian cinema and a true legend of Malayalam films. Nicknamed Nataka Nayakan and often called the “King of Comedy” in Kerala, he has acted in more than 1,500 films, making him one of the most prolific actors in the world. Beginning his career in the 1970s, Jagathy quickly became indispensable for his impeccable timing, improvisational genius, and ability to steal scenes. He was equally at ease in slapstick, satire, drama, and villainous roles. His iconic films include Kilukkam (1991), In Harihar Nagar (1990), Yodha (1992), Mimics Parade (1991), Kalyanaraman (2002), Meesa Madhavan (2002), CID Moosa (2003), Mazha Peyyunnu Maddalam Kottunnu (1986), Udayananu Tharam (2005), and Katha Parayumbol (2007). Many of his one liners and characters remain etched in Malayalam pop culture. Over his five decade long career, Jagathy won numerous accolades, including five Kerala State Film Awards for Supporting Actor and Comedy roles, and is widely regarded as the benchmark for comedy acting in Malayalam cinema. Though his career was cut short by a tragic car accident in 2012, his legacy as Malayalam cinema’s most beloved comedian lives on, with an unparalleled body of work that continues to entertain new generations.
