Career
Bichu Thirumala started his lyricist career in the 1972-Malayalam film Bhaja Govindam. After his modest beginning, Thirumala went on to become one of the most successful Malayalam lyricists and wrote songs for such notable music directors as Shyam, A. T. Ummer, Raveendran, G. Devarajan, and Ilaiyaraaja. In the 1970s he teamed up with music director A. T. Ummer to compose many sweet melodies. Bichu Thirumala penned the lines for AR Rahman's one and only Malayalam music for film Yodha. His first song "Brahma Muhoorthathil" became popular as a "lalitha gaanam" or light song since the movie "Bhaja Govindam" did not see the light of the day. Radio Ceylon used to air the song in the early 70's.
