Fans our Kollywood Industry was totally shocked by the sudden demise of the Balu Mahendra, The Legend started his career in the tinsel world as a cinematographer and later went onto direct some of the most memorable movies including the award winning Moondram Pirai and Veedu.
The legend is considered to be among the first to pioneer innovative camera style for colour in South India besides drawing acclaim for use of natural lighting as much as possible in his frames. Here are some of the tweets made by our Kollywood celebs on the legend and his legacy
