Noted lyricist Vairamuthu needs no introduction. His several thousand songs and over 40 classics in Tamil won him enough recognition. The winner of Sahitya Akademi award, his Kallikaattu Ithisam has won many awards and laurels in his career spanning three decades.
The latest jewel in the crown of Vairamuthu is that he would be honoured with a doctorate for his services for the development of Tamil.
Tamil Nadu Governor, His Excellency Dr Surjeet Singh Barnala will confer the honour on the ace lyricist at a function to be held in Chennai soon.
