Ego and professional jealousy are always associated with professionals. Most of the professionals cannot withstand the rising of their competitors, even if they are closely related to them. Story of Perumthachan, one of the twelve sons of Vararuchi and Panchami, the parayi too was not different. He was a great architect and as he has been adopted by a carpenter, Perumthachan too engaged in the same profession. Even now there are several architectural wonders in Kerala which are believed to be created by Perumthachan.

Example for Kerala Architecture

When the people of his village, Uliyannoor planned to have a pond near their temple they assigned the work to Perumthachan. When some people insisted to have a pond with a round shape, some others insisted that it should be in square shape. There were several others who demanded a triangular pond and a rectangular pond. Perumthachan agreed to all and constructed a pond which is round shape when looked at it at a specific angle and round in other angles. It is triangular in one angle and rectangular in another angle.

Uliyannoor Perumthachan &#; 5 Things to Know about Kerala&#;s Master Craftsman

Let&#;s start off with a few well-known details in the legend of Perumthachan. Most of what we now know about Perumthachan is either from Kottarathil Sankunni&#;s Aithihyamala or word of the mouth. The master craftsman was also immortalised in G Sankarakurup&#;s poem Perumthachan and Ajayan&#;s movie of the same name. In the latter, actor Thilakan, who was truly a Perumthachan himself in his field, morphed into the master architect so much that the legend is now inseparably associated with him.

According to most myths, Perumthachan was one of twelve children of Vararuchi, a saint at Vikramaditya&#;s court and his parayi wife, Panchami. Varuruchi, who can give Marvel&#;s Odin a run for his money in the competition to claim the title of worst father, had Panchami abandon all her children at birth with an excuse &#;va keeriya daivam athinolla vazhiyum kandittond&#;. Perumthachan landed in Uliyannoor and was raised by Achari parents who trained him in the art of carpentry and vastushastram.
