Updated on : 14 August 2016

Award winning poet, columnist and lyricist Na. Muthukumar has passed away. 





The two time National award winning artist who has penned lyrics to many Tamil films has breathed his last today. Apparently Na. Muthukumar was suffering from jaundice that lead to a fever which is now confirmed to be the reason for his demise. 





The 41 year old began his career wanting to become a director and worked under Balu Mahendra. But he went on to writing lyrics and has worked with leading technicians, predominantly Yuvan Shankar Raja. He turned into a dialogue writer with Ajith's Kireedam.





At the peak of his career, he had written 103 songs in 2012 alone, which is a huge feat to achieve. He won the National awards for his works in Thanga Meengal and Saivam. 





Tamilsaga extends our deepest sympathies to his family.
