Shaji Narayanan Karun

+'''Shaji Narayanan Karun (b. 1952)'''
+
+
+Malayalam director born in Perinad Taluk,
+Quilon district, Kerala. Well-known
+cameraman, notably for Aravindan’s films but
+also for K.G. George and M.T. Vasudevan
+Nair. Graduate from the FTII’s cinematography
+course (1974). Directorial début, Piravi, was
+widely discussed in India and abroad. His
+camerawork (e.g. for Aravindan) virtually
+defines the look of Kerala’s New Indian
+Cinema with its soft, half-light effects that, in
+the black and white period, played a role
+reminiscent of Subrata Mitra’s work in 60s
+Bengali film. Colour work tends to suppress
+primary colours, their harsh introduction
+symbolising degeneracy or corruption. Also
+made several documentaries, e.g. Kerala
+Carnival, Manishada, Drishya Kerala,
+Kannikal etc.
