I had the opportunity to work with him in numerous films over different periods. Uyarangalil, Sarvakalashala, Moonnam Mura, Ulladakkam, Pingami, Agnidevan, Narasimham, Ayal Kadha Ezhuthukayanu, Nadodikkattu, Vietnam Colony, Natturajavu, and Twenty 20 are just a few of them. He always had the love and affection for me like a father would have for a son. Madhavettan was the first general secretary of the film actors' association.
